To Grandaddy's House-Day Five

Today we left for home.  Sorry I didn't get any pictures, but we were all tired.  We had had a great time, but it felt so good to be back home again!

To Grandaddy's House-Day Four

Today is our last day.  The time has passed so quickly!  We found some grapes that were very ripe and very tart.  They were very juicy too!  We had a big storm.  Before the rain came, the wind was blowing hard.  Sticks were blowing off the maple trees, so Daddy told us to keep away from them.  Then the rain came right as we went inside.  It was amazing to see the wind blowing so hard!  Grandaddy took us all to Cracker Barrel for supper.  Uncle Edward was able to come with us this time.  We enjoyed that so much!

 This juice appears harmless.  It is very spicy!

We are Thompson...

...and Thomson,

We're policemen!

To Grandaddy's House-Day Three

Today was a little cooler than yesterday.  I am used to the cool Boone weather, and it seemed so hot yesterday!  We didn't see Uncle Edward as much today because he had to work last night and was sleeping.  We had a good relaxing day, though, and sat around and visited a lot with Grandaddy.  We also played with the football a lot.

There were four on the bed, and the little one said, "Roll over, roll over"....

 We are on the seventh floor.

I'm folding the laundry,

We usually play a lot of football here.  Today is no exception.

Moses and Noah found Daddy's old medals that he won swimming.

To Grandaddy's House-Day Two

Today is our first day with Grandaddy and Uncle Edward.  We had breakfast at the hotel, and then headed for their house.  It is so neat to see the neighborhood that Daddy grew up in!  Uncle Edward has a night job, so we will not be able to see him as often as we would like, but we were able to visit with him today.  We had a great time just being together, and Grandaddy took us to Logan's Roadhouse for supper.  They serve you lots of peanuts there, and you can throw the shells on the floor.  Thank you so much, Grandaddy!

To Grandaddy's House-Day One

Today we got off on a late start.  We left at about 4:30, but only made about two stops.  That helped and we didn't get here too late.  We went straight to the hotel, but we will visit with Grandaddy and Uncle Edward tomorrow.

Sarah plays with Bekah's camera under supervision.  I am sorry to say that this usually happens without the supervision.

Moses, Noah, and Ruthie have the back seat all to themselves.

Moses takes pictures with the camera he bought from Daddy.

A lot of reading is going on.  I am reading Ben and Me, the story of a mouse who takes credit for all of Ben Franklin's doings.  It is very funny!

It's raining hard!

We got Little Caesar's Pizza for supper.  I loved their supreme!

Douglas likes it too!
