Clues the Grandkids were here....

Image
First clue...balls are everywhere.  All sizes.  Eli likes to throw balls.  We have two of these oversized tennis balls.  Eli enjoyed them. Second clue...a toy that uses balls, a bib, a pink sock.  Ava is the one who likes bibs.  I still have the bibs I made for Jenni and Jay in a drawer.  She got this one out for Eli, hers is a pink one...currently on the floor.  (I did not take a picture of that, sorry.) Third clue...a piano and another ball.  Eli is currently enjoying this little piano.  The ball in the background is supposed to help kids crawl.  It does roll around, but basically it has very annoying music to it.  I have never seen Eli crawl after it, but both he and Ava like to roll it and make the music start. Fourth clue...coloring books!  I love Color Wonder markers!  Ava can color anywhere and not make a mess.  She colors well, and loves it.  Eli was sitting next to her also coloring.  The only difference....he could not get the cap off!  Did not seem to bother him.

Friday Nights

We get to spend a lot of Friday nights with the grandkids.  We usually take them out to get pizza, or something at McDonald's, Chick Fil-A, or even Chipotle.  This one particular Friday, we stopped by our local park, then went on to church where Rod and Jenni were at a Spanish Congregation function. Below is a videeo of Pop and Eli on the slide.  Although you cannot hear Eli, he said "Whee" on the way down every time.  I took the video with my cell phone in the vertical position.  When I downloaded it to my computer, it came out sideways.  I finally figured out how to turn it around. We had a great time at the slides!  Ava is so fast, I had a hard time catching her sliding.  I finally told her to hold still so I could get a picture. Here is Eli contemplating the slide. Sliding pictures. Now some shots of Ava....first one she was too fast! It was getting dark so it was time to party.  Headed up to the chu
