4 grandsons and 4 granddaughters, that's what we had on the weekend of Nov. 9 - 11. The weekend we decided to take these four (look closely, there are four of 'em) to the cottage for a weekend of campfires, wrestling, leaf jumping and caramel apples.
We find boys of this age easy to entertain, they just need some space to jump and a firebox.
The caramel apples were a plus and they were completely the guy's operation.
Look how organized they are! Sideline Grandpa took this photo, I was sleeping.
And they were, ummm.. a hit!
Yes. Very nice.
His face was this dirty most of the weekend.
Besides the taste, the deliciousness of eating a sticky caramel apple is what happens to your hands and face and teeth!
Unless you are old enough to handle it.. like this young man.
For this independent young fellow it was a bit more challenging. I believe we do have the caramel off the chairs and doorknobs as of this week.
Not that we cared, not a twit, we loved it.
The sad part was when it was time to go home because as one said "But I had so much fun!"
Everyone helped make beds, pack bags and haul them to the car.
In fact, they were determined to help.
And don't even think about helping him with this bag.
One last thing; did I say we had 4 grandsons and 4 granddaughters on the weekend of Nov. 11 - 13?
Little did we know that one week later grandson #5 would arrive
three weeks early.
One day, little guy, you'll be part of grandson
weekends too.
Thankful,
Sideline Grandma
