Scarlett learns glue gun to build house

Scarlett and Grandpa built a few houses from ice cream sticks we bought at dollar store  a while back and Scarlett wanted to build one on her own.

So, Grandpa showed me how to do the glue gun and I was able to start to build the floors and the walls myself. Of course Gammie thinks there’s something illegal about Grandpa allowing me to do this.  I was careful and everything worked out OK so far.

Scarlett helps with flowers

Scarlett helps with flowers.  Grandpa trimmed some flowers from the front of the yard and Scarlett collected some and put them in two small vases.  You can see a few other things about the front yard and even Maggie… our crippled beagle.  Maggie  was supposed to be a “toy Beagle”   which means she was supposed to stay small. However, alhough she barks like a beagle, she really looks like a hot dog in a beagle’s costume.  About 7 years ago, she hurt her back some how and has not been able to coordinate her back legs… so she doesn’t walk. But she moves around just fine pulling herself along with her front legs and she’s not in pain… so life is good for her.

By the way, Grandpa says, we have released at least 120 frogs so far from the tadpole batch we caught by Mary’s house. He releases anywhere from 5 to 10 per day as he is changing the water.
