Sunday with Grandparents

Officially, it is Spring Break for the kids.  I brought them to my parents' yesterday, and we are staying for a few days.  

This morning at 'Busco Naz' we thoroughly enjoyed the music of the Campbell family!  They are fantastic musicians.  We also enjoyed the potluck dinner in the CLB gym after morning service.  It was so nice to reconnect with some "old" friends.  

I made this shawl for my lovely mom a couple years ago, but never took a picture of it.  She was kind enough to put it on for me to take some today.  



This evening, we visited Grandma and Grandpa L and Great G'ma D for a while.  Grandma cooked a fabulous meal, and we played games after supper.  The kids were totally enthralled with the Frustration Ball, which Grandma said she bought around 1971 when they were living in Seattle.

The goal is to get the little ball inside to travel from cup to cup in the order they are numbered.  It's really tricky--hence the name "frustration ball."

After supper, Grandma put out a Sunday Sundae bar--complete with bananas, 3 types of ice cream, cherry topping, hot pineapple topping, chocolate syrup, peanuts, sprinkles, and whipped cream!

We played Taboo and Pictionary and laughed a lot!  It was a really fun evening.
