Super G-ma and G-pa Trip 2010

The Spring "Super G" trip has become an annual thing. There was some fear that they weren't going to make the flight but they got on after all--even First Class. We had the bonus of having Andrew visiting on the same trip--on break from school and work for a week and he was on the same flight--although not in first class--sorry Andrew.  It was really nice only having to make one trip to the airport!

Our goal was to keep Grandma and Grandpa busy without wearing them out and allow them to have a little down time to relax.  I hope we accomplished that.  The first thing on the agenda the night they arrived was celebrating Grandma's birthday. With a little help from Emerson she extinguished the question mark candle and finally put that thing to its final rest. (You will see it in at least 2 other birthday posts.) We did dispense with the trip to San Antonio (boo) but we ate a lot of good food, celebrated Mothers day, (I was in Utah on the real Mother's Day), did a little window shopping at the "Domain," took in a Round Rock Express baseball game and had a lot of family time including a great Family Home Evening.  And of course, we drove down to Oak Hill to see the old "homestead" and did a little reminiscing. Now if only we could get Zach and Grandpa to smile for pictures.  Actually, we got close, if you look very closely you will see it.

 Happy Birthday Grandma!

One week went by very fast.  We always wish they would stay a little longer.  We'd love to have them visit even more often but I think Grandma likes her bed better.

And let me take this opportunity to make a standing invitation to anyone who would like to visit us in the great state of Texas.  We do our best to show you a good time!
