Fun on the Roberts' Farm

Just a Typical Tuesday

I Spy Pure Sweetness

Peeking through doorways at these two is my favorite!

our little book lover

This morning MK and I met some friends at Barnes and Noble for story time. Apparently they changed story time to Friday evenings instead of Friday mornings so there was no fun craft, story and snack. Madelyn did not even notice though. She plopped down with Pinkalicious and went on reading. Then she wanted me to read it to her. Followed by Emeraldalicious. Then she wanted to read books about snakes, so we did. Sometimes I think that she and I couldn't be more alike. Then she says that she wants to read about snakes and I realize we may not be as much alike as I thought.

I love her love for reading. We read about 10 books of her choosing and there were no fits when we didn't buy one to take home. It was great! Next week we are going to get our Tyler Public Library cards on Wednesday. I know that she will love checking out new books and bringing them home to read!

Saturday in Sugarland

Today was spent roaming through Sugarland with Madelyn, Mom and Rachel. It was low key and we had absolutely no agenda.

We ate yummy treats as the sunshine hit our skin and the breeze blew through our hair.

We walked. And walked. And walked.

We laughed. And laughed some more.

Madelyn enjoyed playing around the fountain.

She would beg Grandma for more coins to throw in the water. With each toss of the coin another wish was made.

"I wish to spend all day with Aunt Rachel!"

"I wish for a pony!!"

"I wish to go to Uganda to see Joshua and Emmanuel!"

I could have listened all day to the desires of her sweet heart.

She even squeezed in a two hour nap as we pushed her from store to store.

Post nap we ate the most delicious fajitas on the patio at Lupe Tortilla! The wind was so constant that we all even began to feel a little bit of a chill in the air. After dinner we headed back to Aunt Rachel's house to get some rest.

I think we could go for another Saturday in Sugarland some time soon!
