A Weekend With Grandmal

Wow...
What a weekend. Grandmal Mary came to visit us on Fri and stayed the weekend, the boys had a great time. Grandmal cooked and did laundry as she claims she loves to do and I told her she can come and get her laundry fix here anytime. Christian had a stomach virus and ran a fever for the weekend so he was not his bubbly self but now he is better as of last night. He and his partner in crime (Carson) were bouncing off the walls last night in such joy as to have each other to amuse once again. Carson after all week long of begging to go fishing caught his first fish (Snapper) by himself on Sat. He hooked his own shrimp on the line and manned his fishing pole just like his dad and boy was he proud of his cathch. Clayton got a bit of the virus on Sat afternoon but it didn't stick with him long. So the two healthy ones got to go to a birthday party on Sat afternoon at a gymnastic tumbling gym, had a lots of fun on the rings leaping from the rings into the foam pit and the two sick ones spent time with Grandmal and dad. It was great having grandmal Mary here what a big help she was!

Funny words of the week were...

"EC you are Slow poke Rodriguez" and EC replied with no thought or delay "Dad you are Slow poke General Grieviece"

In Carson's words...after asked at school what the children see while observing a nativity made from clay flower pots and garden materials everyone said what the saw and after a long period of silence Carson exclaimed "I see Baby Jesus!" Ms. Nancy asked "how do you know it's Baby Jesus?" Carson repield with a shrug of his shoulders and with a matter of fact confidence "Oh, I know him. He lives in my heart."

In Clayton's words...call me helicopter.

In Christian's words...mom, I'm all better I don't have the diahrea no more.
