At my request, Julie met me in McCammon on Thursday so Grandpa and I could have a little time with Chloe and Lily. Please, girls, can't you share some of that energy?!!!! We had so much fun with them from Thursday until Saturday when I delivered them
safely to their Mom at Amy's wedding shower! I'm sure that any who are grandparents out there will identify with that "safely" sentiment. It is such a big responsibility to keep these precious little visitors well and whole while they are with us without also being too overprotective and not letting them be kids! You will see from some of the following pictures, that we held our breath but trusted that they would be okay. (I love morning prayers begging for safety!) We went to Grandpa's office to say "hello" after returning from McCammon after which he met us at Rupe's for lunch! For some reason, there is something about Rupe's Drive-In that all the grandkids think is top-notch fun!
Other happenings over the three days:
1. Trip to the library
2. Fun at a cute little bead store called "Timely Chunks" so the girls could create their very own bracelets!
3. Time at the park with Kathy Murray, Marcus, and Grandma
4. Swimming, climbing trees, and catching bugs in the backyard
5. Snuggles and movie with Grandma and Grandpa
6. Picking peas in the garden
What a joy to have these precious little girls with us for a couple of days! We wish they lived closer but are so thankful for each time we get to see them!

Yes, a kids paradise and a parents nightmare! Not really...it was a lot of fun, but a mighty challenge to keep track of our kids amongst the hundreds of others! Greg's company advertises with Harris Publishing and they sponsored a customer appreciation night at this Family Fun Center called "BLAST-OFF"! DJ took care of the sick little babies while Cindy and I watched the kids have an absolute ball for two hours the evening of February 25th. They were perma-grin the whole evening! These pictures show but a very few of the many activities available to the kids. Can you imagine the germs but thankfully, they have sanitizer bottles everywhere! And they do have a reputation of cleaning their equipment often and thoroughly! All in all, a very fun evening! Just another perk of Dad's job!
