Mason is old enough to have a needle and thread. He's practicing making yoyos like Grandma. We use LOTS of thread.
We went to see my sister Kathy the librarian. Mason and Kathy picked out books to bring home, and did the story "Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly".

You can find the recipe for Cherry Nut Slice cookies at Judy's blog. They are now part of our holiday baking--thanks Judy!!
Saturday's forecast is rain, snow, and ice. We're staying inside but hope the roads clear on Sunday so we can drive Mason home to Mankato. His parents MISS him!!

I'm not sure you are having enough fun with your Grandson. Are you sure he is not feeling neglected? lol!
Mason is going to have wonderful memories of this week spent with Grandma and Grandpa.
Your cookies look delicious!
You got a lot done this week.
Mason is looking so grown-up. His week with you has probably gone all too fast.
You got so much done and Mason is having a ball. You can tell from the smile on his face.
Mason has the biggest smile. Looks like he's having a great time with grandma. I can't wait until Lucas is old enough to start doing these kind of things. Lots of fun!
Tired some?
Lori, he is growing up so fast. Old enough to stay with Grandma!! That is way cool! Are gonna send Fred a box of those home made cookies? All is well here.
