Grandma and Grandpa visit

Gosh, where did the time go??? It has already been 2 weeks since they visited. The kids were so good, getting ready in the morning and loading up the car to get grandma and grandpa. If only everyday could be that easy! Their flight was a little delayed, so Reggie was a bit late to school, but at least mom had her cell phone this time and we could communicate (although she had it last time and it was buried and turned off in her purse, so the whole time they were here, they worried about what happened to her phone!). I’m sure we’ll be there someday too…oh wait, some days I feel like I’m already there :o). The weather turned out to be just perfect, sunny and warm, but not too hot. That afternoon we soaked up a few rays in the backyard and enjoyed some oranges from the tree. For dinner we went to the favorite, Sweet Tomatoes. Later that night, Ryan and Dad went to a comedy club in Pleasanton to see Tom Arnold and they had all kinds of funnies to tell us about. Saturday was a nice, relaxing day. We went to Reggie’s t-ball game in the morning, did a little yard work and Ryan and I went on a bike ride together. That night, we enjoyed a wonderful birthday dinner for me of stew and French bread. It was delicious!!! We went to church Sat. night since we decided to go to Happy Hollow Zoo and Park on Sunday. I had heard about this place when we moved here, but it was under renovation for a year and a half and it opened one week prior to when we went. They had some great play structures and small zoo exhibits. The kids loved it! It was over 80 and nice to be soaking up the sun.
Mom did a lot of playing babies with Ainsley and dad played a lot of soccer, basketball and some sort of keep away game with Reggie. Grandma’s hair has never been so smooth and brushed! It was great to see them and spend some time hanging out. It always goes so quick!
