Grandkids Sleepover...

March 2 was the day I offered to keep Cailyn and Landon for an overnight, so their mommy & daddy could enjoy a much-needed date (and break)... We had a fun evening after supper, and Aunt Jennifer was here to help entertain her niece and nephew, including a tea party, puzzles, and peek-a-boo with Landon!


It took a few hours to get everyone settled in for the night; Cailyn figured that since Aunt Jen would be her "roommate" that meant lots of chatting, like a slumber party!  Once asleep, everyone slept through the night until about 6:00 a.m.  Landon was first to awake, but there's no quiet voice for a one-year-old, so very soon everyone was up! ;-)

After a hearty breakfast cooked by Grandpa, there was time to watch a little Mickey Mouse Club on Saturday morning, and play peek-a-boo under the "fort" we built in the family room.

Then it was time to play outdoors, and Landon took his morning nap.  Sandbox play, chalkboard drawing, and gardening too.  Cailyn enjoyed playing in the dirt, and watering the newly planted garden vegetables.

We had a great time...
making memories together!  These little ones bring big doses of love into our hearts each time we see them!
We love you, Cailyn and Landon!!  Thankyou Aunt Jennifer for your extra-helping hands!!
