the rest of the story...

ok.

here we go:

we beat up on Grandpa Flip...but it's ok, he can take it, him and his little pink bike:

 see, I told you he could take it/her:

 um...not sure what this was, but it's cute?

 Nana and Grandpa Flip paid homage to Ikea:

 we bought a chain saw and I'm not sure who won....

 we played games on Nana's phone....'cause she always says yes and mommy always say NO!

 we played pick up sticks (see all those trees in the back ground?? they drop a lot of sticks over the winter!!!...like, a LOT)

 we showed off our mad reading skills:

and when it was time to go we'd all had so much fun that we were all in COMPLETE melt down ;-).

which means we had to say good-bye while we were banished to our beds :-(.

 it's ok, 'cause the pictures are cute!

we ate, we connected, we worked, we played, we talked, I think we walked Nana to her limit and worked Grandpa Flip even further but boy o boy were we so glad to have that much time to just BE with them.

There was a little site seeing and a little running around, but not too much.

How often can you say that about a trip??

We love you Nana and Grandpa Flip....we miss you terribly and can't wait for the next time.

(when the trees are green next time!)

Thanks for taking that much time to be with us.
