FUN WITH GRANDKIDS

This week at the Elementary was Breakfast with your Grandparents so we picked up the boys and off we went. Both of the Twins wanted to sit by Parker...It's a good thing he has 2 sides

Breakfast was Great Harvest bread and your choice of Milk, Chocolate milk, orange juice or apple juice. Not much to eat for breakfast, but fun to be with the kids.


some wanted to spread their own jam others wanted help.

After breakfast it was off to the kids rooms to see what was new and to read to each other.
Thanks Cor.... for remembering to bring a book to read.

It wouldn't be picture time without some funny pictures.

OK, dad said make a funny face, then took the picture before I pulled one, but the kid were faster.

The other fun thing we did with grand kids was to make crayons......I bought this machine for Grandma Beverly about 5 years ago and it was never used. So I brought it home and when Sheldon and family were up here we pulled it out......

Brigham had to sit on the table...his favorite place to sit.

You take some old broken crayons and place them in the machine, and turn it on. and wait...

and wait

and then about 20 min. later you pour the melted crayons int the mold and wait again for the machine and the crayon to cool and Waaa laaa you have a new fun multi colored crayon.

Matching Bruises

After reading Stephanie's Blog about her bruise, we thought you might like to see the one your dad got. He has been using the toy he got a year ago...his chipper. Some wood got clogged and so dad had to reach down the shoot to unplug it and after doing that several times his arm looked like this. Ouch!!!! That just looks painful but it must be the thing to have since Stephanie and Dad both have one.
