Summer '09 Road Trip-Stop #7

Stop #7

The May Residence-Colfax, Wisconsin

Grandma Kris

We stayed with my mom for a few days and had a very nice time. My dad was out in Nevada, so it was just us girls at home...and Bob, Luke & Keegan of course. I hadn't been to see my parents new diggs. The place has tons of potential and is going to be 100% them when they're finished with it. We didn't do much, just relaxed, which is exactly what we needed!

My mom and Liz ended up leaving my Grandma Marge's house 1 night before I did and Luke decided to go with them. I was a little nervous for him...it would be his first official sleepover without any siblings! He was so excited to see my mom's puppy, that he had to go with. He did pretty good, only got up once in the night wanting me. I say that's pretty good for a first sleepover.

Here's Luke & his new best friend Lola (or paddles or ??? we'll see what name gma sticks with). I was really impressed with how well Luke looked after her. He was so good to take her out for potty breaks, feed her and play with her. It makes me excited that he might actually be responsible enough to take care of a dog someday...if we ever get one.

Grandma's Toads...she has 2 of these guys.

Grandma and the kids decorated crowns for the girls and a visor for Luke.
The girls had so many stickers attached to them that they had to overlap....
but they had a lot of fun. Carley is still wearing hers around!

We went into town one night for pizza and stopped by to visit with my Great Aunt Hazel.
It was very nice to chat and catch up a bit.
The kids were in love with her cat and I think it's fair to say that she loved them back.

Keegan & Carley were so cute trying to peek out the window on Grandma's front doors.
I had to grab my camera. This was the position they assumed each time they spied someone leave thru the front door...without them.
