On Wednesday morning it was hot and steamy, but that was ok! We were invited to swim at Grammy's friends the Sevin's pool. And it was lovely! The kids loved it! Especially Mr. Sevin's rafts with squirt guns and his pool-cleaning-robot!
G was ready to go!
Lots of fun in the water!
After our swim, we packed up and decamped to GraGra's house for the rest of the week. More fun to be had there!
Pancakes with Papa Greg,for one!
(I know it's not nice to put pictures of people in PJs on your blog. GraGra will just have to get even somehow.)
Then some backyard hay bales....for bayhales as Colin INSISTS on calling them.
And some sort of game with a measuring tape and a paper towel tube....I don't know.
Puzzles and piano lessons on the computer (again, I don't know).
(And apparently we wore only underwear a lot.)
Callie really enjoyed our visit because we produced a lot of boxes for her to sleep in. Even this double decker!
On Saturday morning, I took the kiddos for a walk up to the barn (and impressed them with my ability to open an electric fence) and we tried to find the donkey with no luck. BUT, we did find some tractors!
Gillian was picking wheat with a hay rake. Very talented.
And Colin was sad because I wouldn't let him wiggle every lever on the tractor. And he was exhausted. He was so dirty by this point that his tear left a mud track down his face!
Just some examples of our fun, fun week with our Grammy and GraGra and Papa and even lots of Great-Grandparents! Hooray!

Looks like everyone had a great time. I'm sure some special memories for both C & G and the grandparents were made that week :-) (Had to laugh about the underwear comment...we've been getting a lot of shirt and diaper pictures lately!)
Wow! That does look and sound like LOTS of fun!
Bayhales... love it! We have a lot of "underwear only" days here too. (For the kids, not me!) C & G look like they would be a lot of help at our farm! Dylan and Jacob mess with every lever they can get their hands on... Dylan once turned the key on (which I didn't notice) and drained the battery. Oops. It looks like you all had a great time with the grandparents!
