Tuesdays Treasures

It is Tuesdays Treasure time with Melody of the House on the Side of the Hill  so although it is still Monday here in Nova Scotia I thought I would share my treasures for this week , yes I have three treasures , first off my two beautiful granddaughters arrived last evening after a 16+ hour drive ,it is so wonderful to have them here , I don't have a photo of them from today but this is from last summer when they visited .

 Here are the girls helping to make some bread , Caitlin with dough hook in hand and muscles to get that bread mixed up well. Alyssa is waiting to add more flour to the mix once Caitlin stops clowning around ,oh by the way the bread was delicious and if the heat wave leaves we plan on making bread while they are here.  My third treasure came as somewhat of a surprise today in the mail , the letter was addressed to me from my younger granddaughter Nila , so I quickly opened it to find this very special letter inside , it truly filled my heart with joy , so sweet .
This is the note that Nila wrote to me , how special is this , I am wearing a ribbon and have been awarded the cup for #1 Grandma in the world . 
 My grandchildren  call me Gammie , my request as my great grandmother was called by that name and I always liked the sound of it . This little note is a real treasure and is now on my fridge so I can enjoy seeing it . Thanks for stopping by and hope you have some treasures to share today , be sure to stop by and visit with Melody to see what treasures others have to share.
 hugs Sheila
