First Visit

The first overnight visitors to our house were, of course, the girls. They had a lot to explore and just wanted to know that Zamma and Auntie were doing OK. We played in all the boxes and totes, hiding and just having fun.

Tricia and Makenzie slept in the bedroom, while Kaylie and I took the sofa. We had such a good time just "hanging out together". The traditional popcorn was popped, and we watched our favorite TV shows. I loved watching their faces when we unpacked something and they would say "Zamma, this is like opening Christmas presents!" We had to play the "Guess what this is " game to see who could guess what we were about to unwrap next.
As usual there were traditions that had to be upheld. Most of all, we had to resume the Oreo Cookie Party. Five cookies each and a great glass of milk, makes for a tradition not to be forgotten. We all know that grandmothers are "required" to have cookies!
After a crazy night of fun and laughs the girls now know Zamma and Auntie are OK and ready for them to visit again soon!
