When we got there we went to see my brother and sister-in-law's *new* home. It was so nice, and I was extremely jealous seeing her cold pantry in person. It is SO big! LOL But, it is such a cute home and I am sure they will love it!
The next day Gramma wanted to take the kids to go on a ride in the golf cart. They had a blast!
Here they are waving goodbye to me as they started their ride.
And here they are coming back!
That night we went to go see a production of High School Musical. It was fun, and Sister is totally in love with Troy. While we were watching the production, Troy was singing a song and Sister asked her Auntie, "Karin, did Troy just look at me???" She tried not to giggle and answered, "Yes, he did!" She then turned to me and said, "Mom, I think Troy just looked at me!" I was laughing so hard!
The next day we went to go see Great Papa in the Veteran's Home. I wasnt going to get in the picture, but I am now glad i did. I havent had a picture of me with my grandpa for a very long time, and now I have one!
As you can see in the picture, we were heading also to go swimming! When we got there, there was a boy there that Sister swore was Troy from the Musical the night before. Gramma and I knew it wasnt, but somehow Gramma put the boy up to saying hello to Sister. Once he did it Sister was gushing and showing off and swimming by the poor kid the whole time. She then said, "Mom! I knew that was Troy! How did he know I was going to be at the pool today???" She continued to follow him around the pool while he tried to avoid her. It was hilarious! As far as she knows, it was Troy. ;) Here is a picture of her just watching him. lol
Missy had fun too! There was a little boy there that was so adorable and he kept teasing Missy, and unfortunately I think she liked it! LOL I am going to have my hands full with these 2 girls!
Cman was a little fish! He was loving the water.
The next day we went to Great Gramma's and played in their back room for a while. Then we headed back to the swimming pool for one last swim! Guess who was there again? Troy! LOL I then had to say, "Now, don't follow Troy around again today because then everyone will know who he is. He's trying to keep a low profile, and you might blow his cover!" She was very good and obeyed me. LOL
We then went back to Papa and Gramma's and packed everything up and drove home. We had so much fun, and hope to be able to do it again soon!
