Grandma....You didn't blog us!
so here it is....during the 5 or so weeks I couldn't log onto my blog, my kids and grand kids from Texas came for a two week visit. My son was on a 3 month leave from his job in Afghanistan.
The kids as usual had a great time with the critters.Grand daughter loved the fact we had 11 baby goats to love on and play with.
Cooling off in the pool
Roasting marshmallows
Grilling Bulgogi from a venison roast
Sparklers at night
Who else but Grandma would give you a bar of soap and let you shower in the rain?
Lunch at the Marines favorite place "Pineapple Willy's:"
It has a great deck over the beach
A trip to Gulf World Marine Park
To watch the dolphins
and the sea lions
The Marine thought he was pretty cool to get special seating to see the shows. I thought it was pretty cool because I got a chair beside him and didn't have to sit in the bleachers
Do I need to start this show?
We petted the stingrays
and the desert tortoise
We fed him at Pineapple Willy's
There were beautiful birds perched everywhere
Make a totem pole face
4 of my grand kids and my great niece
a busy day and all tuckered out
What a beautiful family. The house was so empty when they went back to Texas. I miss them so much my heart aches

I don't feel that old until I look in the mirror and then I scare myself....LOL Papa Bear was just far enough away when he snapped the picture not to show all the lines and wrinkles!
You are such a lucky lady, and those grandchildren are beautiful.
