Getting Pampered
One day I was giving myself a pedicure. She was very curious about what I was doing, but VERY unsure of the foot tub,the vibrations and noise it was making. She watched very closely and asked very quietly, "mama, may I have a turn?"
She thought it was the funniest thing to put her feet in the water and the bubbles between her toes. When we were done, she told me her feet was feeling like "china paper." I'm still not sure what that meant. She got her toe nails painted and she was a very happy customer.LOL

Summer Fun
postcard exchange
Just recently Miss Diva participated in a post exchange with other children,from all around the world, that have been adopted from China as well. She was excited to buy the postcards and write her name on them. She was excited to see if she got some in return.
We mailed 10 postcards. Some as close as Buffalo and the furthest was the Netherlands.
Her first card came from Wisconsin, she loves getting mail. Her second and third ones came Colorado and Seattle. Waiting for more. This is fun,

Cottage Part 3 (last day)
So finally, after pulling several ribbons. The treats came flying out. The girls had a blast. This was so much fun for them.
silly girls.......gotta love them
blowing bubbles on the dock with Leanne
helping clean the corn for dinner. This was a different thing for the princess. She has never done this before. She didn't like it. It was getting in her hair and she was not happy about it.
She fell asleep while eating dinner that night. She was so tired. Joad was trying to wake her by putting or trying to put a hot dog in her mouth. She didn't flinch. She was so funny, she has never done this before.

Jennie was so consumed with her marshmallow. She was having a blast with it. OR should I say, making a mess with it. She was funny!

Cottage Weekend Part 2
Saturday morning's breakfast was very yummy! Leanne made blueberry pancakes! They were delicious! We also had bacon, a fruit salad and toast. What a great way to start another busy day.

Miss Diva swimming in the lake. She didn't want anyone holding onto her because "I can do it myself"...
Leanne had brought sun visors for the girls to decorate for a craft. This kept them busy for a while. They were a lot of fun.

Cottage Weekend Part1
We were invited to our friends Leanne and Joad's cottage for their daughter's 5th birthday. We were excited and so was the princess to see her friends and go to their cottage. She had no idea what "the cottage" meant, but it involved her friends, so it had to be fun.
We were a little nervous about how the princess was going to react to the boat ride. Considering she doesn't like loud noises, I was a little nervous. Joad helped her in and she was ready to go.
She loved it! She was saying "weeeeeeeeee" and uncle Joad go faster...She loved the speed. What a little daredevil.
Just beautiful there!
Our fully stocked fridge. We had everything we needed and could have stayed a week. Lots of food!
Joad doing dishes!
Jan is going to kill me, but we laughed so hard because she had 1 glass of wine and was pretty happy.
