Mama Shannon & The Wright Trips

Grandma Wright came for a visit

Nate's mom came down on Monday for a little visit. The trips were happy to see her. They played on the floor with Grandma, danced for her & showed off. And she got to see some tantrums in full swing!! Right, Grandma? She would say, "No, they are just expressing themselves." Gotta love those darn Grandma's. What about the days when they used to give us whoopuns and ground us for life? Come on now...when I got my first tattoo, I was just "expressing myself." However, I sure as crap didn't get the "it's okay Shannon, you're just expressing yourself" speech. And I'm pretty sure Nate didn't get that speech when he branded his leg in high school. Hey mom's? You are laughing at us now, aren't you? You're thinking as you read this, "oh you just wait." Geez, grand kids are so spoiled :)

Grandma with Jasper on her lap. You can see Izzy peeking thru. She was upset because she got off Grandma's lap for a few seconds & BAM..Jas snuck in!

Weekend Fun!

On Saturday, we ventured out to Donnie & Suzy's house. It was for a little reunion. We had a blast! They have such a nice place with lots of land & room to run around & play. It really is beautiful out there. We had good food..as always! The kids swam & we got to hang out with our cousins & relax. Of course, "cornhole" was played. For those of you who are thinking, "what in the heck is cornhole?", it's a super fun game where we toss bags of corn across to a wooden box with a hole. You play on teams. Nate & I did not win. Eric & his girlfriend Crystal beat the crap out of us. It was still fun. "The Dolphin Girls" (Alyssa & Trinity) put on a special show for us & I even got their autograph!

We didn't get home until 10 pm. I had to be at work at 6 am on Sunday. Nate said the kids slept in until 9:45 am...GO FIGURE! I took lots & lots of pictures. Enjoy!
