Chloe And "Lovey Bear" (cont.)

While Pop is taking his nap, we decide to go out and jump on the tramperine (trampoline). This has always been a hard word for Chloe to pronounce, but she comes close.

It feels so good just to jump softly as you go around the tramperine.

The breeze is blowing through your hair and the air feels cool om as I jump. I think that I will try to do a flip.

Oops!, It turns out to be a flop. I need to practice it more and I will finally be able to do it right.

"Poppy," "Take a picture while I am in the air and it will look like I'm flying." I finally got a shot that you could see here in the air that wasn't blurry.

The dogs, (Sky on left and Penny on right) came around to the back yard to get a little attention from Chloe, but decided to sit in the shade and watch from a distance until she got off of the tramperine.

After jumping she is off at a trot to see the new baby calves and to deed them some hay and then off to feed the horses some bread. She is talking to "Lovey Bear" as she goes, explaining to her, what she is doing as she goes.

While she is showing "Lovey Bear" the calves and how to feed them, I go in search for some bread to feed the horses. When I return to the back forty she is standing by the gate petting the horses and waiting to feed them.

We decide to go into the house to cool off and wash up to eat. Chloe shows "Lovey Bear" how to set the table and after we have eaten she wants to help put the dishes into the dishwasher. After she has finished loading the dishwasher she gets the broom and dust pan to sweep the floor. While she is doing this Aunt Emily starts mopping where she has swept. Then she decides she wants to mop and she is moping in earnest to get up any spots that she finds on the floor. Pop tells her to come over to him and he tells her that he is so proud of her wanting to help around the house and he gives her $2 for helping out. A smile comes quickly to her face and I know in her mind she is already thinking about a trip to the candy store.

It is getting close to the time to go and pick up Grandmother from work so we say our goodbye's and leave to get Grandmother. We are just about at her work when sh calls and said that she had to work over two extra hours. Since we were already there we decided to sit out in the parking lot and watch the sunset.

She spotted the moon in the evening sky as well as the pink clouds. She really enjoyed the pink clouds, since pink is her favorite color.

As the sun started going down the colors of the clouds were so beautiful.

Now the sun is almost set and the colors of the sky are so beautiful. Chloe exclaimed, "God must love the evenings of the day, because the sky is so beautiful with pretty colors."

We still had an hour to go before Grandmother got off so I decided that we would go in the store and see , that since they are remodeling the store they may have some great mark downs. We were going up and down each isle and she would see something and comment on it and we would go a little further and she would see something else.

On the pet isle she shows me the kind of cat food her cats love to eat. And she shows me the kind of toys that cats love to play with.

We turned the corner and to our surprise we were on the candy isle and she didn't even comment about it. She was so excited by the Halloween Decorations that were for sale on the isle. She wanted to know if the blood on the Candelabra was real or was it just paint. I told her it was made to look real but, yes it was paint.

"Hey Poppy," "I bet you have never seen a spider this big before.

This looks like Casper the Friendly Ghost, dressed up for Halloween.

How about this smiling Jack-O-Lantern?

This is so cool! I bet it would really be cool in the dark!

Look at this Skeleton and it plays a tune.

She then noticed the different mask and wanted to try some of them on for "Lovey Bear."

 She liked this Mardi Gras mask, probably because it was pink and purple with sparkles.

 She thought the color on this one was so very cool, but when she saw the picture she didn't like it as much.

 She said this one looked like an old lady painted up as a clown. She loved the Bubba teeth.

She loved the Witch's Hat and the Wonder Woman mask.

I like this on Poppy because it's pink and it doesn't cover all of my face.

And this one make me feel like I'm a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader.

After checking everything out to her satisfaction she decided it was time to head toward the Bakery to get a cookie before they closed. I was proud of her for not crying and wanting everything on that isle. She was just satisfied to look and try the mask on and look at the decorations.

She was so happy to see that the free cookie was decorated in Halloween colors. I asked her if she was going to share her cookie with "Lovey Bear," and she said, "Lovey only eats pretend food."

It was time to pick up Grandmother and go home for the evening.

We went to the Sonic Drive In and got us each a corn dog and an ice cream cone and then went home for the evening.

After Chloe had her bath she wanted to read a book and have her back scratched so she could go to sleep.

Well as you can see, we have had a busy weekend so far but we still have Sunday to go.
