Visiting Grandpa, Shasha and Uncle Aaron

Noah was so tired he'd fallen asleep on the high chair!

Hi Aly!

Last Friday, we braved ourselves for a five hour car ride to grandpa Campbell's house in Lewiston. We left in the evening so that the kids would sleep most of the time. BUT, apart from Saya, most of the kids were up, Alyson screaming at times. FUN FUN FUN!! You gotta love the perks.
Once at grandpa's, the kids were so busy exploring every inch of grandpa's backyard and playing with grandpa, Shasha and uncle Aaron. They were very content that they were getting enough attention for a change. We went to the Snake river and three older kids were immersed in water getting themselves soaking wet. Sean enjoyed throwing rocks into the river. Aly and Uncle Aaron sat facing each other having lunch on grandpa's deck, sharing giggles and smiles. Seeing them so happy was worth the drive.

We left on Sunday evening after dinner and Noah was so tired, he'd fallen asleep on the high chair. We departed on Noah's high pitch screams and I am sure that sucked the last ounce of energy out of grandpa, Shasha and Aaron, but all in all we had a really good time. It's so nice to see you guys and we'll make sure we do this as much as we can!
