Fun with the Grands...part II

Well, we did LOTS of cool stuff with Dylan and Drew this weekend on their first sleepover. Katier had a sleep over some months back and it was time for Dylan and Drew. We worried they might be scared sleeping downstairs in the dark and long hallway, but they slept in Lori's old room with nightlights and slept all night! Except for the prefunctory potty visit about 11 pm Becky had warned us about. Dad and I decided that making some rockets would be fun for boys, so I cut out cardboard and helped them paint and paint and paint. Then we had to let it dry. So while we were doing that, we played outside, they helped Grandpa cut some wood for the workbench, made airplanes on the garage chair, played with the parachute men, watched TV, played Wii, played computer games and in general had a lot of fun. We finally got to assemble the planes and up to Ellsworth Park we went. Here is a video of the final project. And no, it didn't hit Dad, just looks like it.




I went with Becky into Portland to ride Grandpa's bus last week on my day off and we had fun there too.
