Family Time

Sorry you're sideways Nana, I tried four times to fix you but it just wouldn't work...
The last two days have been BUSY BUSY! More than usual. Grandma Marian was in town, she came to our house for a night and the other night at Mom and Dad's. On Tuesday Denise, Dan, and James came over to Mom and Dad's and we enjoyed supper together and then some serious quality time. Somehow the kids conned the uncles into playing judo and a serious wrestling match ensued. James and Dan roughed up the kids pretty hard and there were tears only once when Arch and E knocked heads. It was so much fun! The kids slept GREAT and we went back the next day for more. This time it was Grandpa's turn for wrestling and it seemed under control until he came after me and I had to take him out... Or did he take me down? Whatever, the kids were screaming and laughing, the grownups were laughing and huffing and puffing and again we had a great time.
I'm so glad that Nana/Grandma Marian could come and stay over, the kids loved spending time with her and she brought the rest of our family together for a meal and good conversation and great fun. Elijah, Mr. Shy mama's boy even walked right to her a couple of times, wanting to be picked up and hugged when I refuesed to give him what he wanted. They made friends. And I'm so proud to be in this family, that pulls together when it counts and has fun together when it counts and we're just there for each other.
