Grandma's House

We spent the weekend in southern Missouri at Grandma's house. (We explained to Brooke that Grandma lets Papa live at her house, too.) We all had a great time, and you know I took a billion pictures!

We took the kiddos to a place called the Discovery Playhouse. Brooke and Nate both loved every minute. We started with a ride on the firetruck.



On to a little grocery shopping. Not my idea of fun, but to each her own.




Brooke loves trains. She talked to the trains while she pushed them around the little track. We sat back and watched her in her own little world. So sweet.



We also saw a bug exhibit, did some crafts, played in the sand table, played with magnets, and you name it. Brooke had a blast.

There were all kinds of things for Nate to do, too. These are some of my favorite pics:


Is it possible to catch air when crawling?






When we got home we played outside. It was so nice to be out in the warm weather. The next day we went to church and played some more before heading home.

Wait a minute! I can't talk about a trip to Grandma's house without talking desserts. Oh, the desserts. This weekend we had strawberries dipped in chocolate, shoo-fly pie and strawberry shortcake. For Brooke, eating is still a full-out sensory experience. Can you blame her?



Such a fun weekend. Thank you both!
