Race Day for Their Mama

 The grandkiddos Mama was running a race this morning.  So, we got to have four of them at our house to play.  Here is Ava, Evan and Tyler having their goldfish snack.  I think I should get stock in goldfish crackers the way they love them.  Their Mama got first place in her age group and 11th overall. There were 100 runners.  We are so proud of our daughter!!!!!

 Ava doing her block building.

 Evan trying to build stair steps with blocks.

 Our thumb suckers.

 Kori tried grapefruit for the first time and liked it.  She, also, likes lemons.  So, we thought she may like grapefruit.

Ava playing with Pappy's zipper on his shirt.  He had been away doing some banking and a few other Saturday errands.  Ava had looked at Pappy's rocking chair and said, "Pappy away."  When Pappy got home she just wanted his attention.  She loves her Pappy.

Snow Day with 4 Grandkiddos

 I got to have 4 of the grandchildren with me for a couple of hours this afternoon.  Here they are having lunch... I serve them what they will eat.  Evan... Rice Chex, Ty and Ava... Rice Krispies and Kori ... peanut butter and jelly sandwich.  These were their requests.

 Evan after his bath and full of goldfish crackers.
