School's Out for the Summer!

My last contract day was a Wednesday.  The principal let us go early if we were finished with all of or check-out procedures.  I left school, and was on the way to Farmington a half-hour later.  I needed a grandboys fix.  (Have I ever mentioned that I love being a grandma, and I love, love, love my grandboys?)

Peter is a super-chill little guy!  He loves to smile and laugh.  

David and I went on a walk to buy a tomato plant.  There are three or four blocks of a rose garden path along the way.

I think we stopped to sniff each and every bloom!

Chelsea hid her first geocache.  It is a fun one!  David was making sure that his grandma could find it!

It's a mystery cache.  We solved the coordinate mystery in the Children's Museum, and then found the cache in the park close by.

Chelsea did our toes, and I took pictures of them at the Children's Museum after we found the cache!

I took some of these pictures from Chelsea's blog.  This is David and me reading in bed!

After the museum, we met Brian at Wendy's for lunch.  (It was 50 cent Frosty time again!)

After I got to Farmington, I found out that Brian had to do some court stuff in Gallup the following Monday.  Since they were coming this way anyway, I asked if I could bring David home with me for a few days.  His parents said it was okay, so I thew him in the car and brought him home for a few days!

Eating dinner on the back porch!

Reading his cake book to Grandad.

Getting ready for bed.  Chelsea packed his Teddy Bear, Po, that he sleeps with.  He said "Po is for mine house.  Mickey is for Grandma's house."

He slept with Mickey every night.  He went to bed easy for us, and slept well!  Whew!

Cocoa Puffs for breakfast at Grandma's house!

Just about the first thing David did was grab the crayons and paper, made a picture, and put it on the refrigerator!

Playing in the sand is always fun!

The grandad finished enclosing the bottom of the deck!

Grandad took David on a wheelbarrow ride through the alley and around the block!

Watching Winnie the Pooh with Grandad!

Grandad is still the man!

We went up to McGaffey for the groundbreaking of the Milk Ranch Trailhead.  We went on a hike before the event began.  David hiked most of the way all by himself. 

We went hiking with Tera Gambill.

The dad was the main speaker and the emcee of the event.  It was hot, dry event, and David was as good as gold!

After 20 years, we finally got a new vacuum cleaner!

David is his daddy's son.  He loved playing games!

More sandbox time.

On Sunday, the rest of David's family came to Gallup.  Petey Pie is big enough for the high chair, now!

Playing Oh, Rats!

Watching Winnie the Pooh.

Off to church!

What a great way to start Summer Break!
