Fun at Grandma and Grandpa's House

It is always fun to visit grandma and grandpa but this trip has been especially fun. Our first night here we went over to the high school to watch a softball game. Grandpa took the boys and they enjoyed the game over some nachos. Then, Grandpa took Friday off and took the boys for a hike in the mountains which I joined them for. It was really fun to explore in the mountains with the boys. We found lots of bugs, mushrooms growing on trees and lots of rocks to play on in the nearby creek. Then, we went shopping at the outlet malls and enjoyed a relaxing game of softball while grandpa umpired. There were, of course, random outbreaks of bear trap which the little boys just love! Michael seems to be outgrowing them--actually he prefers to be the bear.

Then, today while we sitting on the front porch a young buck decided to join us for a snack. Michael screamed when he saw the deer but luckily did not scare it away. It was great fun to watch him wander around and eat. He was beautiful. Nature is awesome! We still have more fun planned but we'll have to save that for another blog!
