Happy Anniversary We Didn't Start Out As Grandparents!








Sea Breezes Happy Anniversary Pops! We aren't just growing old together, we are just growing! Grand baby number five will be here soon. We started out with just the two of us, and after 36 years of marriage, we have nine kids, soon to be ten! That is some growth! We are rich with blessings! Pops is in a bit of trouble. We kept Kennedy this weekend while Mommy and Daddy went to a family wedding and well......Pops and K had a GREAT time. Maybe too great. When K woke up from her morning nap, we both went to see the precious grand baby standing in the crib holding her baby doll. Pops showed her how to make baby "fly." K roared with laughter. Pops would make baby fly, Kennedy would make baby fly. All one has to do to make a doll fly is toss it out of the crib in the air and watch it land. They both laughed so hard, you could hear them next door, I was sure. They played flying baby most of the weekend. When the parents got back and the grandparents left, the grand baby still played flying baby tossing dolls in the air around the house. Oops! Pops forgot to tell K "What happens while parents are away and grandparents are in charge of grandchildren stays with the folks with grand in front of their names." Shh.....Did I mention MeMe's cookas? I made K sugar cookies, she calls one of them a cooka. Pops was caught giving K a cooka for snack, "right after breakfast?"...only because she asked for a cooka. So Pops is in a bit of trouble. Does that mean we will behave next time the parents put us in charge? Do you think we will play in the bathtub too long, ride the wagon in the front yard in our jammies, or go swimming in the wading pool, after dinner, chase each other through the house, or feed the ducks more than once a day.......again?? Probably, but we won't let the parents know. Enjoy our shots of our secret fun. K and Pops both have Crocs! Happy Anniversary dear! If we hadn't had all our own kids, we wouldn't have gotten all these beautiful grandchildren. That is another reason to have kids, they give you grandchildren. They don't call it grand for nothing!

I love that picture of their feet! I'm glad you had a good time-and spoiled her! That's what you're supposed to do!

We are still detoxing from the weekend! She didn't throw a baby today at least! :) K said she had so much fun with you guys and she was very interested in the pictures when we looked at them. She got exctited about MeMe and Pops!

I'm pretty sure grandparents are supposed to spoil the grandkids... Don't tell my mom I said that.
