Vacation at Grandma & Grandpa’s Day 1

Canyon and Evan are spending a few days with us while their parents are off on their own vacation to Vegas.

Today has been full of adventures and we have had lots of fun.  First they played with Justin, Xander, Tymber and Mallory then we took a big load of JUNK to the dump.  Canyon helped Gramps put the old toilet into the dumpster and guess what!!! Gramps got toilet water all down the front of him.  Pretty stinky trick Canyon pulled on him.

Next we went to the museum at the Senior Center.  This was real fun and we learned all about the way the pioneers lived when they first came to Brigham City.

From there we went to Kent’s to shop because they have little baskets for “shoppers in training”.  Look at this cute kid with her basket full of goodies.

Gramps mowed the lawn and turned on the water and lo and behold all the kids in the neighborhood gathered on our lawn to play in the water.

Justin won the water attire award of the day with his pajamas and life jacket.  This kid cracks me up.                DSCN3920

Mallory and Evan were soaking wet and they were trying to water the flowers with their watering cans.DSCN3919

Canyon and Nathan were having races and trying to see if they could out run the sprayers as they rotated across the lawn.DSCN3923

We went through four towels, three fleece blankets, strawberries, chips and a dozen pop cycles today.  The towels and blankets are washed and ready for our play time tomorrow.

To end the day we had a taco pizza in celebration of Cinco De Mayo, Canyon made a cake for strawberry shortcake, they had showers, brushed teeth and before 7:30 Evan was fast asleep.  Canyon was soon to follow.

I do think that we had a fun day.

You can come anytime. I remember you and Brook playing just like these two little girls. Brings back so many happy memories.
