Grandma and Grandpa spent Labor Day weekend with us. The kids were super excited to throw Grandma a surprise 60th birthday party. They helped make cupcakes, pick out party decorations and they each bought something they thought Grandma would like at the Dollar Store. Bella even made Grandma a special necklace. We had a yummy BBQ and delicious homemade ice cream.
Saturday morning we decided to take the kids to a splash park across town. Who would think a couple of roundabouts could have caused such confusion! We had 3 cars and somehow Grandpa managed to get lost in the roundabout, got on the freeway, came back, circled around and went the wrong way again. We were waiting for him off the side of the road wondering where he could have possibly gone. Luckily we spotted him going the wrong way and took off in hot pursuit while Trina waited in her car by the side of the road. The one time we really needed our cell phones and Grandma had left hers at home! We were all laughing hysterically, but Grandpa didn’t seem to find it as amusing!
We eventually made it to the splash park and the kids had a blast.
Monday we went to Pine Valley on a fishing excursion. It was cloudy and cool, which felt wonderful this time of year. It did sprinkle on us and we were glad we had the big shade umbrella to provide shelter from the storm.
I know if Grandpa is with us we will always catch at least one fish. He is the master fisherman after all!

We also went on a little hike. Bella tried to cross the stream on every tree limb that was down. It was so beautiful and green. I just love Pine Valley!
