Another full week, AND with beautiful weather! As I was putting all the pictures together, I noticed that our week started and ended with great-grandparents and I'm so thankful that my kids have that in their lives! You think grandparents spoil (yes, they do), with great-grandparents there is zilch, zippo, nada that the kids can do wrong....everything they do is just spectacular and cute. What a blessing to get to watch their relationship in action!

I had a work meeting and a hospital visit...when I went to pick the kids up from my mom's, this is what I found....rough life.

Third Thursday is a street fest in our town during the summer. Once a month, on the third Thursday, they close down part of Main Street and vendors set up on either side. Thousands of people turn out to listen to live music and eat local fare. We started the evening with free popcorn.

Cousins digging in the sand. Aiden wasn't much of a help though...he was too busy eating it.

We spent the afternoon with Shaun's other grandfather and his wife and also Shaun's sister Sarah while Shaun, Tony and Jared golfed nine holes.
Later, we had a jam session. We cleared the living room floor and the kids danced and screamed and requested Pop's songs. I'd post a video, but I'm not sure you could handle it. :) Intense screaming, laughing, dancing. Aiden was completely taken with the guitar.
Cousins! They just never have any fun when they are together. :)
I think I love coming to your blog the most because it always makes me smile and gives me that warm fuzzy family feeling I love so much!!
ReplyDeleteLisa, you are incredibly blessed to have so much family around and it's wonderful to see you take full advantage of it!!
Sara has a favorite... and I can see why. Love, love, love your grandfather and daddy moments captured this week. That's truly priceless.
ReplyDelete{your pix have me convicted... need to carry my nikon around more! ha!}
Your kids really are so cute - I love all the pics of them this week.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the cousins pic! Looking forward to experiencing all that joy and fun in person pretty soon :)
ReplyDeletePrecious great-grandparent pics this week. Precious memories.
ReplyDeleteI am amazed at your ability to get such fabulous photos while out and about at the street fest. I always have a photographic nightmare when I bring a camera along for such events.
Oh, yes, I see. They are a big bunch of DEPRIVED, FORLORN cousins, indeed!!!
Precious Great grand parent pictures! My boys have 2 great grandmas...one turns 100 tomorrow in fact! And cousins are the best! We have so much fun when we see the cousins (which sadly is only about once a year since we live cross country from each other) Great week in pictures (too funny about the headless princess!)
ReplyDeleteFamily time.. isn't it the best!
ReplyDeleteWhat absolutely fantastic photographs! I love the one of Daddy dressing the princess.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that the pictures with Shaun's grandfather have his hands in them! There is something about the hands and what they have done that just speak volumes!
ReplyDeleteSo Aiden had a little mouth exfoliation with the sand?! :)
What a fun idea with the Third Thursday!
Have a super week!!
