Grandma is here!!

Susan is back.... and staying!!  That is for the next 2 months at least.  She has recently retired from her job and is taking a vacation (if you can call it that when there are 2 crazy parents, 3 wild kids and 2 hyper dogs).  Although I do not have specific days or very many pictures I have managed to take a few pictures of a few things we have been doing over the first week and a half.

Pedicures:

 Saturday at the beach- I had my friend Millies kids the weekend after she arrived (Friday-Sunday morning) so we all walked down to the beach to play and to have lunch.

 Liam and Carly

 Emry and Morgan

 Aydin and Luke

 Lunch-

On the 17th- Liam wanted to swing.... so he went up to the patio above the garage, tied a rope around the top and opened up the garage door.  Grandma got the 'proof'

 Reading and playing outside gets HOT- and when it is this hot.... why not take a dip in the pool??

After school on Wednesday (25th) we got the play dough out..... grandma taught Liam how to punch a circle with the end of the rolling pin (open) and blow it out shooting it across the table.  It kept him busy for at least 20 minutes.  He could not stop laughing.

She has been spending her days going to the gym with me in the morning, walking the beach, and helping me get the kids to and from whatever they have going on (including homework), cooking, getting Halloween stuff together for decorations and the Halloween party we will be having in a few weeks and hanging out. 

We will be going on a few vacations while she is here one to Morocco and hopefully one to Rome.  No matter where we go- we are so happy to have her here and to have this time together.
