It's always fun at Grandma's house

 On Monday, I drove down with the kids to my parents house in Orem for the new cast we'd be getting the next day at Shriner's in SLC.  The drive went well, the kids were very good, which is always nice when Daddy's not there in the car with us.  Scott drove down that night after work. 

Tyler and Russell had so much fun on the giant bean bag chair in the basement.  Russell adores his big brother Tyler.

 Russell is still trying very hard to not walk.  So as you can see below, he reverted back to crawling now that his cast is off.

We had so much fun with Grandma Linda.  Grandpa Roger was in Europe, and he was very missed! It seems like our trips always are at the same time-mine to their house, and his to somewhere else!

So we had swimming, a picnic on the deck, and FHE with Grandma Monday night.

 And here, I look as tired as I was feeling...nice.

 The kids loved this kiddie pool in the backyard.  First swimming of the year for us!  And what (I thought) might be Russell's only chance this summer

 I love the looks of complete enjoyment on these faces.

We played games for FHE.  Emalyn and I finally won the last round we all played.  Tyler also won, and so did Grandma-twice!

And then Scott came, and we went to bed...not knowing how the next day would turn out...
