Over the River and Through the Woods...

To Nanay's house we go...

David and Leda had their fall break from school Monday and Tuesday and decided to go down to Mom's house so they could go to Discovery Place and spend some time with Mom. They invited us to come along, which we did, and we had a wonderful time.

Cameron had to work on Tuesday, so he just came down to Mom's house Monday night after work and stayed the night and then went to work Tuesday while we all got to go play. Its about the same distance to Cameron's work from either our house or Mom's house. We all had dinner together Monday night and had Family Home Evening. We also took Jackson to the park just up the street from Mom's house. This was Caroline's first trip to her Nanay's house.

Tuesday morning when the kids woke up, they were so sweet. I believe Caroline is falling in just as in love with her big brother as he is with her. Whenever he sits beside her (which is ALL the time) she just stares at him.
Mom kept Caroline at home so I could go to Discovery Place with Jackson. David and Leda had gome early to see an exhibit they were doing on Pompeii and Jackson and I met up with them in the "hands on" part. We had such a fun time... Jackson most of all, though I think David was a pretty close second!

Of course he loved the water...


... and the truck

He loves his Aunt "Deda"

and his Uncle "Dadip"

Jackson saw this aneoneme(sp?) and said, "a green hat, a green hat". It was really cute!


My cheese boy. He didn't pee in his pants. He's just wet from playing in the water. :)


This area was about weights and pulleys, etc. He loved being a big strong boy. He even lifted a four wheeler (with mama's help of course)


Jackson and Mama after we left.

Caroline took good snoozes on her Nanay.
Thank you mom, and Leda and David for such a fun time. We need to do it again sometime!!!

Those first two pictures are just too precious. Caroline is beautiful! I can't believe she'll be a year old before I see her... but then again, I'm hoping baby and I will head to GA sometime in the spring, so we'll have to get together!
