Girls Little Vacation- Mama's Little Vacation

My girls have had the wonderful opportunity to spend a few days with their grandparents in South Arkansas.  This is the first time both of them have stayed.  Steve and I have never had the house to ourselves except for a time or two they both spent the night with friends.
The girls have had such a good time.  They always love to go to the little local pet shop and see the puppies, mice, fish and birds.  Emily cries EVERYTIME because she wants a puppy.
 They also LOVE to go to a friend's garden and pick vegetables.  My mother always cooks them what they pick and they love eating them.  They said it was the best corn they have ever eaten.  I agree,  she plants what is called "candy corn."
Another highlight of the week was going to Dollar General and picking out a little toy.  They have had fun playing with neighbor children and finding bugs with Granddaddy.
I am so glad they are able to make these wonderful memories.
I have gotten to sit down and look at a magazine from cover to cover.  I have cleaned the house and it has stayed that way.  I have watched grown up shows and I have relaxed.  Steve and I have had two dates and even saw a movie!
These few days have been good for all of us.
