Sounds as if you all had great weekends, and betty....what a great gift to have gillian and her family with you. And a lovely family it is....how fun!!! beautiful children.
all was well here, and I took my first little boating trip with alyn and ethan on saturday. Had not been on the water without DH ever....but Alyn keeps his little 23' sea ray here since he visits me every couple of weeks. and Ethan loves it.
Of course we had to also spend time with ethan's yard work with his loader, so it was a busy awesome weekend.
funniest thing that happened....on saturday night, after a long day on the water, alyn left to visit friends, Ethan was supposed to be asleep, but got up and said Nana, I think I am hungry. so we had a little fresh strawberry snack, then decided to read awhile...by this time it was 10 pm, and I said let's turn the lights off and tell stories, well, he agreed to that, so we told stories about the day on the boat and about kitties and doggies, and then we justkept on rocking, by 11:30 I was getting groggy, ethan turned around and put his head on my shoulder, said "nite nite, Nana, I love you, but keep on rocking"........cute.
He was asleep in about 2 minutes and I carried him to bed.....we didn't tell his dad how late we stayed up, just kept it a secret........but alyn wondered why he was sleeping late yesteday morning!!!!!! Here is a picture on the beach where we stopped so Ethan could build a sand castle:
