tropical popsicles with Grandma

Grandma's here!

We get her for a good long visit this time and everyone's a little bit (more like a lot) happier around here!

We walked down the beach this afternoon and ate melting tropical popsicles.
These are some darn good popsicle. They taste like mashed up fruit that has been frozen.

Our flavor choices:

Garrett- tangerina (tangerine)
Ethan- limao (lime)
Lydia- manga (mango)
Mom- maracuja (passion fruit)
Mary- abacaxi (pineapple)

I never imagined so many tropical flavor existed in the popsicle world. We were all a sticky mess (mostly thanks to Lydia) by the time we got home!
Hooray for Grandma visits!

Yea! I'm so glad that your mom could come! I've decided that grandmas are angels sent to help young mothers make it through raising young children! And those popsicles look DELICIOUS!

Grandma's are the best aren't they? I sometimes wonder how we cope when they are not around. Enjoy your time together!

Mary, I wish our popsicles would melt here. Unfortunetly, its still pretty cold. Its fun to see your mom in this pictures. It sounds like you guys are having some fun in Brazil. I heard you will be moving to Dallas at the end of the year. We will be moving somewhere as well. Wouldn't it be fun if we ended up in Dallas as well? Say hello to your family for me! Jeanne
