Since Saturday

A little update on the time with the grandkids. Saturday we got up and had breakfast and then packed a lite lunch and headed over to St Paul to see Circus Juventes. We ate our little lunch of sandwiches, bananas and monster cookies at a little park right by the circus school. Then we went in and saw a most fantastic show. There were no pictures allowed, but you can check it out here http://www.circusjuventas.org/ The show lasted for 3 hours. When the show was over Kim picked up Faith and Joe and we went and picked up Jim's grandkids BriAnna and Nate.

Nate, Bri, Abbe and Luke

The kids had so much fun playing "Avatar"  We got up and went to church.  Then home and their Mom joined us and we had a meatball lunch with warm cookies and ice cream for dessert a little later.  About 4 Julie and the kids went home and we just kinda hung out and a little later we went to Yummy Buffet for dinner.  When we got home, we hired Abbe and Luke to pick apples again.  They did such a good job. 

When it was bedtime I was struck with the realization that the kids time with us was already half gone.  It made me very sad.  This morning, Grandpa took them to the Como Zoo.  They were there about 2 1/2 hours and then they came home and Grandpa made them sandwiches for lunch.  Jim said that Eric and Kim got here about 4:30 and picked them up and they plan on staying with them until Wed when we are doing the thing they have been waiting to do since they got here.
