GG time

I haven't even mentioned what Ansley's been doing on Wednesday mornings!  This girl has been hanging out at GG's cottage (an assisted living facility) for weeks and loving every second of it!  It all started with me missing the cutoff to sign the kiddos up for childcare at the church so I could do Beth Moore's, Daniel bible study.  Thankfully, Jason's grandma, offered to keep Ansley while I went.  Well....it was such a hit.  Ansley enjoyed her time with GG and all the residents so much that she was BEGGING to go back (GG was pretty excited to spend time with Ansley too).  It has been such a great experience for her.  She LOVES to serve the residents their food, entertains them, and gets to spend some quality time with GG all the while.  Also, while she's there, she gets her nails polished, they play babies with her (they even get down on the floor with her, believe it or not), and she even dances with some of them during the live music that they have every month.  I mean....it's really unbelievable how much she loves it.  The life lessons and the bond that she's establishing with her GG and the other residents nearly brings me to tears.            
This is Ansley and Miss Megan.  She's a gem and she spoils her rotten!

On Wednesday, Megan put together an Easter egg hunt for the kiddos, so of course we HAD to go! The residents had filled 100's of eggs so that the hunt could take place and the kids really enjoyed it.
  
Ansley's first egg.  She especially loved the stickers that they had placed on the outside of each one (get this girl a sticker and she's happy!).  
Brooks, Paisley, Trevor and Abby joined in too
Charli hung out with GG
Here's Brynn, Ansley, and Charli with GG after the big hunt
I love that the girls get to spend this time with GG and all of her friends.  It's such a blessing to have our grandma's still living and hope that we have many more years to come with them.
