The boys spent this week doing fun things with their Grandparents. Tuesday and Wednesday they camped with MeMaw and Papa at Mile Creek Park in the motor home. This vehicle (the motor home) completely fascinates both of them. They are amazed that there is a small shower, toilet & refrigerator inside something that Papa drives. They swam, rode bikes, grilled hamburgers and simply enjoyed relaxing with family. They especially enjoyed a thunderstorm that rolled in just after they bathed. I asked Nate "What did you do when the storm came?" and he replied, "I was naked!"
Thursday and Friday they went with my parents (John Daddy and DeeDee) to ride the Great Smokey Mountain Railroad from Dillsboro to Bryson City. Then spent Friday morning at Santa's Land - a place they really thought was wonderful fun! Can you imagine, a small rollercoaster with reindeer antlers, Christmas music in the background and a visit with Santa - all in blazing 90 degree summer heat! They loved it (the boys I mean, I'm not so sure about DeeDee and JohnDaddy).
Grandparents are such a gift. I am so thankful that my children have 4 grandparents that love them with all their hearts and take time to teach them about life, about love, and about their heritage. Bryan and I have 3 grandmothers between us still living and we cherish each moment we spend with them.
I look forward to meeting my own grandchildren one day...
