Weekend with Grammy and Papa

I took the boys this weekend to Longview to see Grammy and Papa (my mom and dad). It was my first time to be back to Longview in years. It was really neat to see all the people from the church I grew up in. I got to go to the church Micah and I were married in too. It was really wierd to see kids I remember as babies that are now in high school.

Aunt Cara, Luke and Grammy in the swing


The main purpose of the trip was to take the boys to my Dad's company picnic. It was at a park that I used to go to as a kid. There are pieces of equipment that are well over 30 years old. They have some of the most unique pieces of park equipment I've ever seen. It's probably because the equipment is well over 30 years old-before equipment had to be so super-safe. There are some really fun things. This one is my favorite. We call it the T-swing. If someone will pivot the swings, you can really start to "fly like super man" as Luke said.


Ummm yeah...that slide is probably too tall. It has side rails :) Did I mention that Luke LOVED it and went down it a million times.



Do they even make merry go rounds any more?

The bounce houses- Yes Papa did get in them with the boys :)






Titus was really enjoying all the bouncing. After all than fun, he napped in the stroller for much of the day.




Whee!


Titus did not like the face painting. We only got an outline of a balloon before he gave up.

Yum! Luke ate so much junk and loved it. I remember doing the same thing at the picnic when I was a kid.

The abominable bubbleman




We had a great time!
