The best kind of tired is Grandma tired!

3-8-16

Family time made this a leap year to remember. Enjoyed having all the kids and grand kids together for a visit. The group from up North were here and the rest gave this momma a weekend to remember! Truly believe that I have the greatest kids ever (no bias, just stating the facts)! Had a great afternoon with everyone together, started off with a delicious brunch and then hit the yard. Family, food and friends are a great way to spend an afternoon.

Beautiful day to run in the yard!

Let the grown kids have the night off and hired a sitter for the boys at one house and we kept the girls for the night at our house. Of course, this involved sneaking a bowl of ice cream in the middle of grandma's living room...

Sleepy girls!

Having all these kids together meant tons of energy to be worked off. Five kids three and under equals the need to run and play as much as possible. We managed to hit a few parks, Chik-fil-A and Sonic. Baby b stayed with Grandma a few times so they could take the older kids to the indoor bouncy house and a museum. 

A favorite was throwing sticks into the water from the bridge!

Slides and climbing were another group favorite!

One night we were even attacked by ghosts! No one was injured but I heard a few mommas say, "thanks a lot grandma" so not sure what that could possibly mean, wink wink.

Good news is that the playroom layout worked, room for everyone to play and toys for every personality. I think I'm getting pretty good at this grandma stuff.

Having all the kids together was more fun than I can possible convey with words. The one thing that I can say with absolute certainty is that they are exhausting! Possibly the best kind of tired one could have is grandma tired!
