The Weekend with Grandma and Grandpa

Mom and Dad spent the weekend with us. The teens were in and out as usual but everyone gathered for Saturday's steak dinner. Mom slipped away for nail appointments with Makenna and Erin. We relaxed and avoided the heat as well as we could. The adults played a new card game late into one night and we all over-ate. It was a good weekend.

We stopped by our local farmer's market and had geodes cut open. Both Kate and Ty have taken quite an interest in rocks and minerals lately. They are thrilled with their new treasures. 


Several friends spoke highly of our local "Bricks and Minifigs" store. The kids spent an hour creating LEGO mini figures. Their new little friends entertained them during a long wait at the local Cuban restaurant I drug my father to for lunch. He was a reluctant diner but enjoyed the new experience none the less. I knew Mom would be up for it since she shares my interest in trying new foods whenever we can.

A bike ride to the creek to show off fossils they've previously located in the rock bed topped off one evening of Grandma's trip
Entertaining grandparents is exhausting work.
