We left Mom’s and Dad’s this morning. It was off to Granny and Grandad’s (Bret’s grandparents, Gammie’s parents) for a little visit. It doesn’t matter how often you get to see your grandparents, they always know just how to make your day. The boys got to pull everything out of the toy closet.
One of the treasures they found was a toy doctor kit -- with two play syringes. We got shots in the arms, legs, heads, noses, necks, you name it...
Joey was quite happy to lay on the floor sucking his toes while he received his shots.
Grandad dished up some ice cream for everyone, and then took us outside to see the surprise. Granny had some new pet bunnies. Pooh was the smart one that hid under the shed. This is Chickee (through the eyes of Photographer Conner).
Conner was so excited. “I can’t believe I’m actually petting a bunny rabbit!”
Then we were off to Gammie’s and Poppy’s. We got a call just before we got there – a storm had come through and knocked down a pole with a transformer. There was no power at Gammie’s and Poppy’s, and at their house, that means no water, either. Yeehaw. We prepared the boys for a flashlight party, and then got stuck behind the power company’s repair trucks. (There was no way we were gonna get by them on the little county road.) The boys were sooooo ready to get out of the van. It stunk that we had to sit there and wait for a little while, but the power was on when we pulled up to the house. A flashlight party would have been lots of fun, but given the choice, I would choose power and water nearly every time!
