She came with gifts, which Addison and Fischer always enjoy. They got some new books, some new water guns, Addison got a bracelet and they each got some shorts and a Philadelphia Eagles football jersey. They are so cute in them - I will post pictures of those soon.
Here they are opening some of their presents.
One of the things we did while she was visiting was play with "water beads." I'd been reading about these everywhere and wanted to try them out. I added them to Scott's Wal-Mart list when they went and he came home with yellow, orange and red.
First we soaked them for 6 hours, and they came out looking like this:
Then we took them out onto the porch and let the kids play with them. They had a great time scooping, pouring and stirring them. The beads tended to bounce around some, so we had to make sure to keep them cleaned up so that Bo and Lucy didn't come along and eat them.
Overall they were a very fun and cheap activity that kept the kids occupied for quite some time!
I will post more of what we did during Grandmommy's visit soon!
