Grandson Overnight Weekend...


We have all three grandsons (ages 9, 6, and 4) for a fun overnight until Sunday afternoon. They arrived about the middle of the afternoon today and I headed out with them to see if the nature trail nearby had been finished yet.





But NO luck...Still in disrepair. But, we managed to see some interesting things on our hike (like giant dried thistles, and dead mice..ewww). The boys had fun rolling down "Deadman's Hill" many times too! *L*



The boys thought it was spooky that a black sweatshirt had been hung on a pole along the trail, and the sign that was there was broken to bits ... so we decided not to go deep into the woods, just incase it was some kind of warning to "BEWARE". *S*





The boys also had fun at the playground at the top of Deadman's Hill...







After a long walk around town, we headed back home, rested for awhile, then went to see what treasures we could find at GoodWill and at the Dollar Store before coming home for baths, then pizza and fun.

Surprisingly the boys asked to go up to bed before 9 p.m. .. must have been all that fresh air and walking (or rolling down the hill over and over) that tired them out! *L* Either that, or they wanted to check out what they could get into in Kaine's room, since they were sleeping there tonite. But when I checked in on them, they were fast asleep within half an hour... ahhh, peace and quiet and rest time for Gramma!

Tomorrow is more fun!
