Look at how much fun we're having!

We are staying at Grandma and Grandpa's house while Mom is in Texas and Dad is working nights and long hours.  We've been kayaking in the Sound, swimming in the lagoon, helping in the garden, roasting s'mores on the fire (thank you, Aunt Katy!), and riding bikes.  As always, Nathan's favorite activity is throwing rocks in the water to make a big splash.  (We call this 'moving Grandpa's beach--one rock at a time'.)  We're having so much fun that it's possible we won't want to go home, especially if Dad can come visit us like he did this weekend.  (Only one day off, but we made the most of it!) 

Mom sent us to Grandma and Grandpa's house with my pinata that we forgot to use at a birthday party.  Mom is embarrassed to say which one, but Grandma said the Snickers and Fruit Roll-ups still tasted good!

Bam!

Everyone got in on the action!

We think Holden and his creative mama will like our egg carton snakes!

HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS....
Thanks for sending the pictures, Grandma!  They make Mom feel a little closer while she is away.

Hol, what a blessing to have wonderful grandparents close by that can not only watch your boys when you're away...but have a BLAST with them! Great pictures! Oh, and I just used our last egg out of the carton this evening...so I saved it to also try some fun projects with Holden this week! Very creative - thanks for sharing. Love, Rach

The creativity is all my mom! I actually saved egg cartons for a couple of months and then threw them away because I wasn't sure what to do with them! :)

Evan & Nathan,
I know exactly how the pictures make your Mom feel a little closer while she is away. The pictures she sends me are a life saver inbetween visits!!! Looks like you two (or four)are having a great time in Mom and Dad's absence. Hugs and kisses!!
Love, Oma
