Grandma and Grandpa Socci's Visit

In August, we got to have Grandma and Grandpa Socci here for a week. 


We walked to a park just about every evening after dinner.




Rode bikes, scooters and wiggle cars...



... played some ball...


Bradley decided to be his own T.



We went to the Copper Mines, which just might be one of Bradley's favorite places.




We went to see the UP house...


This is as far as we got.  It would have cost us $60 to go inside.  Yeah.  Pretty cool, but not that cool.


But look!  It's Mr.... um... what's-his-face, from the movie!



A couple days during their trip they took a break from the 4 crazy grandkids to relax with their friends who also live here.



One day they got to go on a shopping spree... Check out all those cars!  What lucky boys.


One day we went swimming...




This was Brynn's first time swimming.  Don't be fooled by this smile... she was actually pretty freaked out and screaming in terror most of the time.  But I'm her Mama.  I can get her to smile.  :)


And her Daddy can get her to calm down.  :)


I think Sherrie must have fed her just about every time Brynnlee ate, while she was here.  Such a loving Grandma.  :)


One day, they took the boys to the farm.  I've still never been, so not much commentary from me here.














Here we are relaxing, while Brynnlee models one of the headbands I made for her twin cousin, Zoe.


The kids also got new weapons from the farm.


Sherrie, bless her heart, wanted a family picture of us.  We did the best we could, but Kaleb's action here, describes how Charles and I feel on any picture day...


...and Jaden's expression describes how all the kids usually feel.


Back at the park, Bradley tells Grandpa to freeze!


Jaden's got Charles under arrest too.


Now it's a standoff.


Thanks for coming Grandma and Grandpa!  We sure do miss you!  Jaden only cried for about a half hour this time.  :)
