I finally got to one of our granddaughter's soccer games this morning.

It was a beautiful day and such a fun way to spend a Saturday morning.

And they won!

Our grandson shared his hard-won football medal.

And our son shared his super-cute baby.  :)

Our oldest granddaughter's birthday is the day after Jed's,

and I had told all the grandkids when we moved here that I wanted to celebrate their birthdays

with a special time at our house, with each of them alone.

It's hard to say who was more excited about this first celebration, her or me.  :)

She loves to help in the kitchen, so the first order of business was to bake a birthday cake for her dad,

whose birthday is tomorrow.

Next up on the schedule...

playing grocery store with the shopping cart, food items and cash register I bought recently.  

I loved this more than you would think.  :)  

We took turns being the storekeeper and she grew tired of it before I did.  :D

Not included in this pictorial are playing hairstylist, 

reading, 

shopping for dress shoes for church tomorrow morning, 

reading some more,

cooking dinner, 

eating cake

and 

opening birthday gifts.

She's a little obsessed with mermaids right now and this was one of her gifts.

The evening ended with a bubble bath in a huge jacuzzi tub.

Spoiling grandchildren has to be one of the sweetest pleasures of life.  :)
