Watching the grandkids



Shannon and Nic went to Mexico to celebrate their 5th anniversary from July 5 to the 10th. While they were gone we watched Connor and Payton for a few days. During the week day they were all Cindy's but on the weekend we both got to interact with them. We had fixed up the playground for them so they would not get slivers by finishing off the trex decking and painting the posts. We added a shade canopy which Payton called her stage.





We loosened up the sand so that it was easier to dig in.



















We also brought over the little wading pool which they took advantage of during the hot July days. It was great to enjoy casual time and just watching them play and explore. Of course there were some challenges. Connor likes to put things into the garbage can and put several pot lids in the garbage before we realized what was happening. He took spare change and dropped the coins in the toilet. Other than that it was not too bad. At least the grandkids did not stand in the toilet like their mother when she was young. We really enjoyed the time with them and it was sad when we had to say good bye to them.
