Nana Time

   We are loving our time with Nana in Florida!  It gives us even more of an excuse to see Uncle Chad and Auntie Lauren too, so we planned lots of shared dinners and fun nights....

 We request a Nana Day, all day Sunday.  We picked her up for church, then planned to have her for the day. We read in the sun, she napped (and snored haha!) and enjoyed a snack supper before we took her back home.

  I don't actually have any photos of this, we were having too much fun I guess?! :)

  I did have a little mishap Sunday morning.....

  Note to self, if your contact container tips over during the night, it will NOT properly neutralize the benzoid peroxide solution.

FIRE. In my eye ballssssss...

Thank goodness for fun glasses to distract!

  Avery wanted pretty curls for church, and we realized we left her corkscrew soft rollers in Kansas, so we improvised and went OLD SCHOOL.

 Rag rollers! 

  Totally worked like a charm.  She was SO excited to show Nana her curls Sunday morning!

  We plan to leave town a few days to head SOUTH.  It's time to face Papa's house without him there for the first time, and help Drea with any remaining Papa things. 

​   I have butterflies, but I know another level of healing can be accomplished simply by facing that place that holds such sad memories of his final days....

  Before we left, we went over to Chad and Lauren's for dinner to soak up some Nana time.

  Dale made a DELICIOUS chicken & rice dish for us all, his families recipe from Costa Rica, with a special salsa that you sprinkle on.....

  Avery made a no bake Eclair cake, served with Strawberries from the festival....

  And just like that, it was time to head south for some sunshine.....

Hugs, T
