This week we are having fun at the Meyer’s house! Christof and Megan with Analiese and Willem are here from Richmond, VA; Erin and Nathan are here from Fort Collins, CO and of course, Pete and Heather are here with their three, Jonathan, Daniel and Edmund, because they live right down the road a few miles. All the Meyer siblings here with their families for a week or so. Because it’s summer, we thought we’d do lots of fun things with the grandchildren, so we planned an activity or two or three for each day. We have had Water play at our house with a slip and slide and sprinklers, water guns, water balloons and “fishing” in a bucket! We’ve had picnics and barbecues with friends and family. We had church in our back yard pergola with some wonderful singing. We’ve had board games, doll houses, and fun at Aztec water park. We met for breakfast at our favorite Bistro in Aztec. We’ve had meals at Pete and Heather’s, and the big guys have had an on-going project at Pete’s. We will visit the children’s museum followed by a picnic tomorrow, we will go feed the ducks on Friday and Friday night the big people will go out for dinner and watch the production, Grease at the Sandstone Amphitheater. The big hit so far was the new clubhouse/fort called, “Tinker’s Wagon.” Doyle (Paca) took the kids out to the wagon in his wagon and lawnmower and from there he kept them for an hour and a half and they had a picnic lunch, played games and tried fly a kite! So….we’ve been busy, gotten dirty, hot and hungry and had our fill of cool water games, and lots of yummy food! I think this is what building memories is all about!
