GRANDSON'S BIRTHDAY/LEGOS

We finally got up to our grandsons for his birthday....he was 9 on the 2nd but we were in Pennsylvania at the time...if you read the post below you know we were in search of a Lego set for him and finally found the one he wanted.

What a huge smile when he opened it! Makes you glad you went from store to store and town to town to find it.


We also gave him another of his favorites....a loaf of Cinnamon bread from Central Market in downtown Lancaster, PA. Whenever we go out there we bring him home a loaf and he calls it CIRCLE BREAD and has toast every morning until it's gone!

I froze the bread immediately upon coming home so he'd get it fresh. It's in the white bag....see the huge grin when he smelled what it was...oh the aroma is soooo wonderful
(Big sister Emily)


And before we even sat down to eat he had it all put together...he's a whiz at these things!
So he got to open his gifts and then we stayed for a Chili supper and cake.
A fun night had by all.

  9. That smile says it all! I can't wait for that kind of joy when we have our grand daughter!

    He looks so proud of himself. I think Lego's are such great toys - our 5 year olds in preschool loved them and they are so good for so many skills.

    Have a great weekend!

  12. What a sweet smile your handsome grandson has! He certainly looks happy with his gifts. How wonderful too, that a loaf of sweet bread can bring as big a smile as a set of lego's. :)
    Bless his heart!
    It sounds like you had a wonderful time at his birthday dinner.
    blessings to you~

    Thanks so much for your comment on my last post...it means alot to me.
    I know that things will get better at some point, but for now my sister and I are trying to do what we can to help our kids. I know that we will be a stronger/closer family because of all that we are going through.
