While Granny and BertBurt were here we tried to cram in as many adventures as possible. Some days were big adventures and others were not so big but everyday we loved hanging out and being with family.
We saw castles, rode roller slides, had parties and even mastered stealing kid forks instead of using chopsticks.
The girls favorite things:
People who constantly spoiled them
Enough adults so everyone got one on one attention
Getting to go on adventures
My favorite things:
Adult conversation throughout the day!!
Game nights almost every night when kids went to bed with lots of laughing.
The magic cleaning fairy who snuck in their luggage. Every time I turned around the kitchen was clean and the floors were mopped. Too bad that fairy seemed to have left with them.

Some people asked to have a slumber party during naptime. It helped the tears stop as they kept asking for Granny and BertBurt. |
