The really good part about the end of a road trip is being home again and getting together with our family.
Early in April there was a big car show in Seattle that featured several collections and rare models of cars from throughout the years. Dan has always loved cars. He even fixed up a old Model A and drove it when he was in high school. Boy, I would have loved to cruise College Avenue in Fort Collins with him when I was sixteen!
Anyway, Jules and Jessica suggested that we take Ian to this car show. Ian is nine and also into cars. So we took Ian, and we all had a blast!
.....and even got to see an Avanti!
When we got back Adam showed me how to weave a hot pad. He was making it for our camper. It will get lots of use in our camper. This is his creation:
Stella and Marina came over and helped us to plant our flowers this spring.
Grandpa hung up our vintage swing from the tree outside our Grandchildren's Room:
Stella seems to be drawn to the piano and really enjoys making “music”.
Marina and Stella knew that Adam and Ian would want to plant some flowers too like they did last spring, so they left some flowers for the “boys.” The girls were wrong....the “boys” finally did help with the flowers, but I had a heck of a time getting them off the tractors to do their planting!
They casually told me that next year Marina and Stella could plant all our flowers.
Adam really can play the piano.
Dan has made model cars and airplanes since he was a little boy. He always has some plastic models on hand and Ian has made several airplanes with Grandpa in the past. Here Grandpa and Adam are making a car.
We took the boys to Playground in the Park, and they did like that. In fact, we all had great fun!
