Movies & More

Here we are at the movies. Isn't he just the cutest little guy? He's small for his age and as light as a feather, he had to sit on the edge of his seat in order to keep it from folding up. Halfway through the movie, I asked him if he wanted to sit on my lap, because he was about to fall into the vee of theatre seat. And you know me, I didn't mind it a bit. We had a great day together.



After the movies, Bryce came back to my house and we played with some of Rick's miniature army toys that he left here. Bryce says to me "I come in Peace!". I crack up at the irony of the statement, and he gives me a funny look and says "They say that in the movies".

She's going to ring my neck for posting this picture, but it's the only one I took. Guess who joined us for the movies? My surprise guest.

A little bit further.






Home so soon, you say. Yes, she really misses friends, Kali & Bryce, and us. But from the conversations we've had I can tell she's adjusting to her new home and settling into her new life there in New Mexico. It won't be so easy to come home after she finds a job and she's going to be looking for one when she goes back. Right now she works out at the gym every day, and has made a few friends among the army wives.

365/38 Overnight Guest

Rick & Audra wanted to go out with friends Greg & Ashley, so their little guy came to stay the night at Grandma Ya Ya's. He didn't have a nap, so came all ready for bed, a video and bear in hand ready to go off to slumberland. It was around 9:00 p.m.

However, Bryce had other ideas. He loves to play blocks at Ya Ya's.



We also played puzzles, read books, watched Shrek & Nemo, ate yogurt etc. etc. etc. And sometime after 1:00 a.m. I insisted we take a rest and he got the big couch and I got the little one. We both fell asleep. When Audra & Rick got home I went to bed. He woke up in the morning yelling "Where are you, Ya Ya?"



About 4 inches of snow fell overnight and Bryce wanted to go outside and play, but he didn't have boots or mittens, so we brought some snow in to play with. He had a great time scooping and building things and it kept him entertained for a couple hours.





He's such a cutie and great therapy (NOT a replacement, just a temporary fix) when I can't be with my own grandkids.
