Kitchen Helpers

 We love Arielle and Benny coming to visit us. They arrived in time to help us make ice cream cakes for our upcoming Family Birthday Celebration.  Of COURSE, he sampled a bit of ice cream to make sure it was the very best quality. 

If someone had told me we'd retire, live in Alaska, have grandkids and kids dropping in...big family celebrations...a household with 3 or 4 generations living in it...I wouldn't have believed it. It's a good life. 

A Day With Benny

Toddler Benny - 2 1/2 years old

 I got to play watch Benny today! We packed a bit of a lunch and went out to find adventure. We visited a park, he picked lovely bunches of flowers for me and his mom, we played basketball, and then we headed to the library. 

LOVE that tongue! Such concentration.

I see you Bachan! 

Our library has been great during the shutdown.  They set up a bit of a story book outside which kids could walk through, they organized games online, they decorated the bus stop with dinos...and now they are doing curbside check out. We can't go inside yet, but we can order books from our library, and they'll deliver them to our car. 

Arielle brought Benny over to help Alex in the garden. They got the rows ready to plant potatoes today.
