Life has been a bit crazy around here lately.
Lots of travel and lots of activities. Then add on the colds that all four of us have had in turn this past week, we have been busy.
I would like to write about two of our activities. One day Carol, Amy, Grace, Glen and I went to visit my dad's oldest sister (Gladys) and her husband (Floyd).
We had a very nice visit with them. We got caught up with the news of their family. They got to meet Glen for the first time.
Looking at this picture and seeing Grace who looks a bit like me when I was little (much darker hair though), I am reminded of when I went to visit Grandma and/or Aunt Gladys when I was younger. I remember that same vase that is on the table, they had similar toys, and my goodness Aunt Gladys looks so much like Grandma (at least from my memories). I am glad that Grace and Glen can have this similar experience. It is neat to see it through their eyes.
Even at 87 years old, Uncle Floyd was able to keep up with and play ball with Grace. That was so much fun to see.
Yesterday Grace and I went to a local park for a play date with my friend Jennifer and her two year old Jessica.
Grace loves this park. And I think that she tried out every element that they had. But she always seemed to go back to the horse (above).
But she did love driving the car.
And flying the helicopter with Jessica.
But the sandbox was a favorite for both girls. I was so happy for once to have such a messy car because I was able to find buckets and bowls for the girls to dig with and fill up.
It was a long and fun day at the park. She was ready for a long, wonderful nap.

I love the part about visiting Aunt Gladys and Uncle Floyd. They are very special people!!
Looked like a fun day at the park. When the boys were younger I loved days like these, where I could wear them out at the park and I could enjoy the sunshine!!
Grace looks wore out after her day at the park. I love here top she is wearing. Love Mamaw.
