Mimi's Sunflower Patch

One of the things we were able to do while in Virginia Beach was give Addie some quality time with her Mimi (my mom) and cousins!
My mother is like most grandmothers and loves her grandchildren.  She likes to come up with fun ways of spending time with the grandchildren which will allow for interaction and fun.
Mimi has a little sunflower garden that she grows in the front yard where there is lots of sun.  The garden is a small raised platform with sunflowers grown to line the outside.  Some of her favorite grand-baby activities are having little tea parties in the sunflower "house."  This "tea" party included popsicles which all the children were happy to enjoy, even if there was at least one runaway. ;)
