Grandkids ~ Privilege of time with them

Last week I had the privilege of having Andrea and Ayden. Ayden's normal sitter was on summer vacation and Brittany (Andrea's sister) was up in PA visiting. Thus.....grandma got to enjoy these two. What fun we had!!!!!! It is always great to have one on one time, so this was a real pleasure to just spend time with them.

Andrea building wonderful towers

nothing better than bubbles

Aunt Hannah came over

Steve serenaded us with guitar playing

went to Burke Lake to swing, slide, and feed the ducks

We even got to go see our cousins! (thanks Courtney for letting us join you!)

these two boys are and will be quite the buddies :)

Bailey was so glad that someone was younger than her!

tough saying goodbye......til next time!

grandma loves these "helpers"

Papa even got to say hi! Phill would drop the kids off in the morning and then give Papa a ride to his bus stop!

I often found her here :)

Even in the back of the pick up....we played ball and talked ~ fun girl time

Andrea ~ she said, "Grandma can you do this? I don't think you can."

"oh yeah, I said.....look and see" Andrea laughed sooooo hard!!!!!

It was a special week ~ full of fun.........and ....Grandma was a bit tired out by the end of the week.
