Sharza


We were so lucky last week to have my sister, Addie's Aunt 'Sharza' (Sarah) come in to town!

We practiced saying her name and looking at pictures before she got in so that Addie would know her. It definitely worked because almost anytime Addie saw Sarah, Addie would point at her and say, "Sharza!" She really loves her!

We were busy while Sarah was in town. We went to the Astro's game.
And had the worst seats ever, but for $1 a ticket, you won't hear me complaining.

We did a LOT of swimming. Almost every day! It was nice to have Sarah there to take a picture of the 3 of us.
We went to the Children's Museum where Addie was eager to show Sarah all of the things there are to do. She took her job of pouring the lemonade very seriously.
Addie learning to play ball from the best.
We headed down to the beach. Addie was careful to continue applying her sunscreen.
She also made sure Sarah was nice and covered.
Of course, Grandma couldn't miss an opportunity to send along some presents with Sarah, so Addie got this adorable new dress!
We kept ourselves busy during naptime by attempting being crafty and making headbands.
We also ate a TON of food. I think Addie's favorite part of having Sarah in town, was that Sarah would always read to her whenever Addie wanted (which is all the time).

We loved having Sarah in town and we miss her like crazy! Every now and then, Addie will wander around the house calling out for 'Sharza.' Come back soon Sarah!

I love the headbands. Cute idea and I want to learn how. Do you think you can come all the way to Vancouver just to show me? Great job on repurposing your pants too. We miss you guys. How do you like living in our old neighborhood?
