50/50 part 1

Eric decided to go visit his grandparents as well as attend his 25th high school reunion. He kindly took 50% of our children with him..... Nice huh? Even nicer, he took the younger portion of our darlings. Finn and Gabe hopped on a plane with him for a 5 day trip. I stayed home with Tate and Coleman. Easy Peasy. We had a lot of fun and that will be part 2. The boys stayed and played a lot with Grandma Gloria and Grandpops.

Aunt Mary took them to a fun amusement park and they even got to venture to a fun indoor water park with Daddy. It was a quick trip, but a necessary and fun one too. The flight home was hard and they didn't walk in the door until 3:40 am. Ouch!!

Pulling the veggies

Inspecting the carrot

Proud of his harvest

Loving on Granny!!

Playing with Granny. (his Great-Sweet-Grandmother!!)

The Gramps is getting old and frail. He had to have an aneurysm stint put in while Eric was there. Good timing. Luckily he is doing very well.

Paul (Shabby) with the Gramps. They have always had a good relationship and I know the Gramps was glad to see Paul.

Most of the gang.

Nice to have my man and the other 50% home, safe and sound. We missed them and the house was much too quiet. We are excited to go back to Oregon for Thanksgiving!! Yea!!
