Park / Ballpark Day...Day 7

Robyn has a group of friends that meet at the park twice a week

to let the kids play and let the Mom's visit so we joined in

today. It was 86 in St. George and the littles loved it.

Minie, Gwynnie, Gilly and lots of other little friends were

busy playing their hearts out but I only got pictures of

Poppy Lou because when she wasn't contained in a swing,

I was busy chasing her...not taking pictures!

And boy does this girl LOVE to swing!!!

Minie grabbed the camera and got this little shot of Robyn and me...
I guess Minie Moo shares some of her Mommy's talents!
We headed home in time for Gwynnie to get to pre-school,
and M & P and Gil took welcomed naps after all the
fun in the 80+ degree weather.

Then it was off to Abe's ball game for Poppy and me.
Here you see Pop-tart enjoying some of the finer
things about the ballpark....popcorn and snow cones.
I didn't actually get any pictures of Abe playing
because once again, I had Poppy with me and about
all that can be accomplished is running herd on the
little busy body. Abe pitched and we loved seeing him!
Mins and Robyn took Gwynnie to music lessons
and then dance lessons and met up with us later.
(Turns out Minie actually insisted on TAKING the dance class
with Gwynnie and did remarkably well, amazing the
instructor with her attention span and skills!)
Then it was home for dinner, baths, and bedtime.
After all the littles were asleep, we headed to
Tucker's game while Abe babysat.

Here are some shots of Tucker pitching.
He is growing into a REALLY good little ball player!

Here he is batting...he got a hit every time up!

He's a great little third baseman as well.

Here Tucker is smacking the ball with Coach Bob

in the background. Too bad we don't live closer....

I'd be to EVERY game! Such fun!!!

So tomorrow on Day 8 we load up and head back north.

Sweet Holley and Cheyenne are coming to stay the

night with the girls so Mike and I can catch the late

flight to California for Baby Brig's blessing.

They will keep them until after nap time on Day 9 and

then deliver them to Kennan to sleep there Friday

night and spend Day 10 with them until Mom and

Dad fly into SLC about 4PM. It has been a super

busy week but these are the most adorable little

girls. Some of our favorite moments have been Minie

telling us she was wearing a bow with "pokey pots" on it

instead of polka dots and when Robyn said she was

fixing Gwynnie's hair like Belle's hair she looked in the mirror at

her hair and said she had "beast" hair. She makes us all giggle.

These are super busy times in a young family's life,

but they are gone in a flash. Look how fast this time has

gone. It's such a great work....hard work, but a great work!

Thanks again, Robyn and Bob, for letting us join in your

family's life for a few days....it made these little girls time

away from Mommy and Daddy lots of fun and helped make

this Ol' Grandma's job a lot easier.

XOXOXO
