It's been a while since I've found/made the time to blog, but I'm going to go back in time here and try to catch up. We've had a spring full of activity, which leaves little time for writing it all down.
So the day finally arrived for the Great Grandparents arrival. I decided to take Payton with me to the airport, so we loaded up in the car and headed off. I had mentioned that they were coming, but we hadn't really gone in depth as to who they were. So the conversation went something like this.
Me: We're going to get Grandma Donna & Grandpa Dean, that's MY grandma & grandpa and Grandpa Mark's mommy and daddy
Payton: But what are their last names.
Me: Last names? Their last name is Orr.
Payton: But what are their LAST names.
Me: Their names are Grandma Donna & Grandpa Dean, Marmar Donna & Papa Dean
Payton: But what are their LAST names
Me: I don't know
We've had similar conversations since then, and I still don't know what she's looking for in a "last name."
Anyway, we had a wonderful visit with the highlight of Payton getting to play in the ocean with her great grandparents. I am pretty certain there are very few kids in the world who can say that! From the beach it was pretty hard to tell who the grownups were and who was the kid as they were all three having a blast and giggling like little kids when the waves knocked them over again and again. Parker spent most of the time on the beach eating sand, but she also enjoyed playing in the surf as well. I don't have photos from that day because I forgot my camera!
The rest of the visit we hung out around the house and the Estero area and filled their bellies with good fish. We took Grandma & Grandpa to Koreshan Park to show them some of our areas history, and enjoyed some good Florida April heat and humidity.
It was a very special week for me, as I have very fond memories of my own great grandparents and I am so thrilled that my girls had a chance to spend this time with theirs.
