My seven year old grand daughter is an artist too. She drew this picture of me at the baseball game. And then she painted it. When you get to the bottom of the post you will see just how much it does look like me!
And my daughter is an artist in the kitchen. She made this beautiful egg, potato and artichoke dish
and my plate of delicious food
And after we ate we all headed out to the baseball field where our grandson hit a home run bringing in two other teammates; and helped score his team in extra innings to a one point win over "the second best team in the league grandma!"
He's #4
My grand daughter kept busy on the sidelines with my pens and paints, while grandpa played with his new concertina!
And here we are with the drawing completed after she said
"I want to draw YOU grandma!"
and she did!
It was truly a very delicious Mother's Day for me in all ways possible.
Well, this is a adorable post. I love the drawing of you, it is pricless...I love it when my Grandkids have done things of me. She did really good. Your day looks wonderful. Here's to next year and so on....love, Mary

ReplyDeleteYes Lisa I am...;
DeleteIt obviously runs in the family, Lynn. A really lovely post - glad you had such a nice family day.
ReplyDeleteThanks John it was super good!
DeleteHow fun for your Grandson to win. It was a win win day for you all. Lovely food, lovely company. The painting by your GD really did resemble you. She caught your essence to a T. I knew it was you right away.
ReplyDeleteIsn't she great Cris? They both are! Such loves!
DeleteWhat a beautiful post and family! Congratulations on a wonderful day, Kristin xo
ReplyDeleteKristin, thank you! Glad you liked this post.
DeleteMagnificent! I like your little glasses and yellow buttons!
ReplyDeleteNora thank you. I sent your compliment on to my grand daughter! And the blouse does have little off white wooden buttons! She has a good eye that one!
DeleteTalent does run in the family!
ReplyDeleteYa think so Mim? Thanks!
DeleteWell you had a great day. And yes, your granddaughter's portrait does look like you and has a touch of style. Oh how lucky you are to live close enough to go to a little league game. I miss those.
ReplyDeleteThanks L.W., Isn't she great? It was my first game and I really enjoyed it. I got hit in the leg by a stray ball, it was a proud brusie in the name of the game!
DeleteOh that does look like a great Mothers Day. So nice to see your gd drawing whilst out and about like that, looks like she is enjoying it. The food your daughter prepared looks delicious, but do I spy bacon on your plate!!!! lol. Sounds like your gs did a good job with his game, although I have no idea what the rules meant...heehee.
ReplyDeleteYes, observant Ann, that is Turkish bacon in fact. We are good Jews, but we do not observe kosher rules. ;-)) The game is fun. Kids hitting balls with a stick, running around three bases, and once back to "home plate" they score a point! I think the final score was 25-24!
DeleteWonderful post, Lynn! You have an adorable family....and a talented artist in your granddaughter! She caught your essence perfectly!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
♥ Robin ♥
Thanks Robin...the kids are all adorable you are right! And they both draw well and play hard! Glad you enjoyed the post!
DeleteThat is an excellent drawing -wow she is truly a little artist in the making. And I love the feeling of homeliness that pervades this post. I love the way you show even the food LOL. And are the twins really 7 already? OMG where have the past few years gone Lynnie? Keep these posts coming- I adore them. And happy grans day to you.
