Grandchildren today!
Today, while Amanda was playing piano for a wedding, the kiddos came to our house to play! The best news a grandma can ever hear is for your daughter to call in the morning to say that the kids are so anxious to come over; can I bring them early? Of course!
It was a nice, relatively cool (after the 100+ degrees we had last week) day, so we played outside for awhile. They love coloring the driveway with chalk, as well as any nuts, acorns, and sticks that are handy. Today they decided to take ice cube trays out to put chalk and things in -




Then it was time to fix lunch, so I brought John in while I did that -

Later, Charlie was taking pictures with my camera, and either he or Grandpa took this picture of him and Grandpa!

Amanda finished up at the wedding, and Sam was out working, so we got Chinese food and they stayed for dinner. What fun to have them here all day! While the younger two took naps; Charlie and Grandpa did some clean-up work outside, then when naps were over, the kids played inside as it was starting to rain.
Rain, glorious rain! We are getting a nice, soaking rain. now as I am typing this!
This coming week at our church is VBS!
On my knitting needles - this Turkish lace shawl -

Love how pleased you are that your grandchildren came over for the day. I love it when I get to see mine too. Some one actually asked if I was crazy for moving down here to take care of Matthew when he was born!
I <3 my grands! All 7 of them! 
Sounds like a fantastic day.
It is such a joy to have them on our own from time to time without their parents. They behave even more differently without the parents. We have our 2 and 2 of the ones that will probably be dilove's step children within a couple or 3 months. So basically we will have 9 grandchildren instead of 6. And if Dianna marries that will add another so guess 10 is a good round number. lol
I love how you love your grandbabies! SO sweet.
The shawl looks gorgeous!
