It's always fun at Grandma's house!

We spent the first weekend of April at my Mom and Dad's. My brothers, Keith and Danny, and their families came over on Saturday. We missed my youngest brother Jason and his family. Hopefully we'll see them soon!
Grandma made cute Easter Goody Bags for the grandchildren. And hid them in the front yard. They were packed full of good stuff! My kids LOVE their cousins!!! We also had fun flying kites on a totally windless day! The kids had to work very hard to keep their kites in the air. Even Blake gave a try and was so cute "running", until he got tied up in the string!!!

A trip to Grandma and Papa's house means getting to hang out downstairs. Papa has a whole room dedicated to model trains. This has been a big hit for many years. It is fun to see the "train room" grow! The latest addition was a table cut down for the kids and a Thomas the Tank Engine track set up for little hands to play with. No wonder my boys LOVE trains! They get it from their Papa!

Josh took us on a nature hike by a local lake. He likes to take his bike and ride the trails. It was beautiful!! The end result of the trail was enjoying the lake.

This was a fun wooden bridge on the trail. Josh likes riding it with his bike. We had fun on the trail! The kids really had a good time except when they were scared by a deer running out behind them!!!

We always look forward to our trips to Mom and Dad's!! We wish they could be more often. We go every 2 or 3 months right now. In the summer we will be going more often so we can help out with the family garden!! We are excited for that adventure!
