Visit to Grandad's house


We went to visit my Grandad yesterday, met up with my parents and my brother and his family and all spent the afternoon there with him. The kids had fun all being together, and hanging out in a new house with new rooms to explore. The girls had the most fun laying in Grandad's bed reading books with Grammy (my mom).

Grandad is reading the "if you give a pig a pancake"











Grammy and Pop brought their sprinkler for the kids to play in. The boys loved it. Alexander WILL NOT let go of the hose, not for anything. Perhaps he will be a fireman.

Here he is sporting Pop's hat.









Isaiah and Alexander stayed in the water for a good long time. Alexander would have stayed all day. Notice the hose in his hand.












The girls were not so fond of the cold water.
















The did get in briefly.















Phia yells "Giddy up" over and over to Uncle Gabe. After a while Isabella gets/falls off and Gabe tries to buck Phia off, but she is sturdy and never falls. She has to be dragged off!












Trying to take a group picture is always fun with all these kids.

Isaiah was ready for a nap, so he was highly offended at being made to put on a shirt and told where to sit.









Nehemiah had no such qualms.
