Why we love visiting grandparents

Running around in the dirt . . .  mostly naked.

Exploring the yard . . . mostly naked.

Playing on the playset . . . mostly naked.

Jumping on the jumpoline . . . mostly naked.

So I like being mostly naked.

It makes it easier for Mommy to give me zerbits when we wrestle.

But I did get dressed later. Swim trunks count as getting dressed.

They are the appropriate attire for Grandpa to teach me about the refractory properties of water particles that in the end create something as beautiful as a rainbow. Gotta love science!

Oh, and by the way, they have trees full of these. Applesauce, Apple Pie Filling, Apple Butter . . . Yummy.

And Tino is there. We love Tino if you hadn't already figured that out.

And Jana was there too. She reminded us a lot of Mommy. Can you guess why?

Then there is family picnics.

With family picnics is the opportunity to hang out with family (meaning great-grandma, grandpa, grandma, aunts, uncles, cousins and just a ton of fun).

Cool cousins who want to hang out with me. And when I say cool, I mean cool. His shirt and hat tells me he bleeds Blue.

Thought they left me home? Nope, I don't like the mostly naked thing, and I don't like the hot weather. I prefer being made up beautiful by my aunts and cousins inside where it is cool.

But when the sun went down and the yard is full of shade, I join them outside.

And when no one is watching, my inner tiger comes out and I try to steal the food off your plate.

Then there is this cute little sweetheart who Mommy fell completely in love with. Who wouldn't love that sweet face and yogurt covered hand?

We also see Grandma and Grandpa who have this beautiful building down the street. How lucky are they to have his majestic building so close.

And for all posterity to see. Grandma jumping on the jumpoline.

These are our reasons we love visiting our Grandmas and Grandpas.
