Omi Makes Fleece Blankets for All

Omi's Aunt Phyllis gave her bundles of fleece to make cuddle blankets for the kids.  Mara chose Elmo (Mo-mo) and the Sesame Street monsters.  Claire has little girls with a pink back.
Brody and Max both chose Nemo and Mav's is purple.  They sure do love blankets!  Thanks, Aunt Phyllis, for sharing your fleece with us!
The kids have always been very scared of the cows in the backyard.  We always tell the kids that the cows can't get them cuz they are behind a fence.  Today, for some reason, they are no longer afraid.  Now we have to wait for them to touch the electric fence, cuz they are determined that it cannot be bad for them.  They are even talking to the cows ("Hi, cows!", "come, boss, come, boss").  Summer is going to be much better this year.
Mara and Maverick are catching some rest on the couch.  Claire loves getting people snuggled up, so she put down pillows and got baby blankets for them.  Funniest part, they go along with her!  I have noticed that it is pretty easy to get Mara to snuggle up with any type of blanket or pillow, even when she isn't tired!
