Sunday was Gran's birthday, so on Saturday I thought it would be a fun idea to go to the Painted Plate and create a "priceless" present for Gran. The thought was to make a mug with "I (heart) Gran" and inside the heart would be Makenna's hand prints. Well, her face says it all. It was as if she knew what was coming. Needless to say if was neither "fun" nor "priceless" since Makenna paid in tears. Don't worry we didn't make her suffer through getting hand or foot prints done. With two attempts we threw in the towel on that idea and settled for her initials within the heart. Gran played with the little Miss while I created the mug. Lesson learned. And definitely a mug that we will always remember!
Of course our efforts were rewarded with cones of Olympic Mountain Ice Cream! Makenna sneakily managed to nab the end of my cone. :)
It wasn't until the mug was complete that Makenna actually wanted something to do with it.
Happy Birthday Gran!!
On Sunday we had a birthday dinner at Steve & DelRae's (THANK YOU once again for hosting)!! Yummy food and of course a ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins made for a great end to a birthday weekend. Only a few short weeks until Gran will officially call Thurston County home! We can't wait!!!
