We had fun watching our great-grandson Anthony for a few hours. He came with a backpack full of animals.

He said the raccoon (which he is holding) is his favorite.

He loves watching story videos.

We watched a really fun one where the puppies and pigs were playing in mud and went home with the wrong family. The puppy had trouble convincing mamma pig that he was not a pig. 🙂 And a little pig went home with the puppy’s family. After “accidental” baths, the families realized their mistakes and the animals got back to their real family.

Our next project was making four coffee cup cakes in the microwave.

I had never used these, so got a large coffee cup to make sure it wouldn’t cook over.

After adding a packet of mix we added milk – I think it was three tablespoons.

Mixing the ingredients

The finished product. This one was for grandpa.

It looks like we can use a smaller cup for the next one.

Next we made my cake.

We put his cakes in two paper coffee cups with lids so they would be easy to take home.

I didn’t take any pictures of our next project – playing Jenga. I found the loose block and he pulled it out. He loved when the tower fell. 🙂 His mama came when we were playing that game.

That was a delightful afternoon.
