Project 365 - Week 16

Sunday

We started the day singing songs on the patio.  DK played Gracie's guitar and, of course, the concert included Lovebug by the Jonas Brothers.   {This was after my lil' workout dilemma.  Ha!}

Monday

On our grocery run, the girls and I bought flowers from DK. 
He's sweet like that.  ;)



We also picked up some catnip spray for Bella {Nator's request}.  Nator donated a mouse, the girls named 'Prince Naveen'.  Prince and Bella became instant friends... and the spotlight of entertainment around our house.  I know... You're thinking I should really get out more, right? :)

Tuesday

I spent the morning sewing no-sew-taping badges on the girls' uniforms.  {Someone should tell Martha Stewart about that lil' secret.}  Gracie made DK and me badges.  Sew sweet. ;)


Wednesday
Let's see... Do I post the pic of the sunrise when we woke early to bring DK to the airport?  Do I show you the pic of Jasmine and how pitifully sweet she looked with her head resting on the car's armrest, while waiting on me to get in the car?  Do I show you the picture Nator took of me at Panera, after my workout {not. pretty. but happy there were no bullies in kid care at the gym.  yay!}?  Nah... I'll simply post this pic of a sweet, spontaneous moment in our day.


We passed someone's car who had their music cranked up loud.  Before Gracie could get the request off of her lips, I rolled the windows down and cranked up our music too!  I managed to snap this {cell} pic in the moment.  We were listening to...

Bring On The Love by Coldwater Jane

Nator leaned toward the window and screamed, "We're bringin' the love!!"
I love my lil' girls.  Sigh.

I wrapped up our errands with some mommy/daughter time with Nator while Gracie enjoyed dance class.

Thursday

The girls were so excited to work on these poster-sized lapbooks.  Nator wanted to research state flowers, while Gracie worked on a requirement for scouts with a horse-themed poster. 

Friday
  
The girls and I spent some time doing a fun photo-shoot, then Gracie hit a brick wall when we got home.  Body aches and fever.  Crazy.  Poor baby girl.  :(   Days like this make you even more appreciative of life and it's many blessings.  I loaded up my sick girl and nurse Nator {yeah, she likes to help take care of everyone too} and we headed to the airport to pick up hubs.  Yay!

Saturday
  
This beautiful girl was part of our day.  Another great family.  While we had a lil' photo-shoot adventure, our girls rested and watched a movie in the car.  Gracie is still not feeling well, so I had to cancel one of my photo shoots.  She has had less fever today, but I just want my sweet baby girl well.  Now, please.  I'm not demanding either. ;)

I have a feeling I will be spending most of my 'next' week taking care of my girls and editing pix from Friday and Saturday.  ;)

How was your week?
I'm linking up with Sara.  Feel free to join in!

  11. Loved the video/song and story behind it! That's SO what my girls would do. Right now we're in love with Soul Sister by Train and we roll down the window and crank up the volume. We hope our enthusiasm is catchy! :)

    Great pics this week. Hope your girls don't get the stomach thing going around. Tara's had it and Katie might be getting it. That makes for a LONG week. :(
