Grandma & Grandpa's = Spoiling & Fun

We try to get up to see Nate's parents once a month or so. When we do go, it is a guarantee that the kids will have a blast & Nate & I usually will get a date night (thanks Mark & Wanda). Last weekend was the Johnny Appleseed festival. Don't ask me what Mr. Appleseed did. All I know is there is a ton of food at this festival along with crafts & music.

The trains....oh, the trains

So, everyone knows that Jasper has a liking for Pee Wee. Nate's mom pulled out this suit that Nate wore when he was 3. It's been a week ago and Jasper has worn this suit everyday but one (and that's because he was in trouble & I made his punishment that he couldn't wear his suit).

Oh yea

"Well, who's this handsome fella?"

This was a shot looking thru Isabel's hair at all the toys

Pizza!

Oh, the clip on his shirt is one of Isabel's hair bows

Ready for bed

Only at Grandma & Grandpa's house will you hear a four year old being asked, "Would you like a cup of coffee this morning?"

The festival pics! These next three pictures I am titling, "A Man With His Stick." (And my niece Hannah peeking around Grandpa)

I think they were cooking dumplings

Most of the time, the kids had their hands on their ears because of guns going off or cannons

Rock candy sucker

And the face after

Chicken corn chowder....it was good. Nate said it looked like cat vomit.

Those darn guns!

The cornbread. Holy Cow THE CORNBREAD! That stuff was the "you know what".

The pork burgers...I can't vouch for these things as I'm not a huge fan of meat, but my kids sure loved them. Jonah (who doesn't eat anything) ate 2 full sandwiches. And those things were big!

Look at him! Get it, Jonah! Apple crisp stuff

Greasy good fry string things

CANDY!
