A fun day

The weather was beautiful today, and since Tanya is on vacation this week before she starts her new position as a Judge, she brought the children out for a visit.

They both love riding the bikes I keep for them out here, but Joey has outgrown his so I'll have to shop around for another one; the thrift stores have lots of good bikes to choose from, so that will be on the agenda soon.

I've been making scrapbooks for each of them, documenting their lives since they came into our family.  Joey LOVES looking at the pictures and remembering what he used to do when he was "little".

Carly was also interested in the albums, but she was multi-tasking:  getting a massage in our recliner, watching the video of her bike riding on my Samsung Tablet, and holding the album on her lap ready to look at it.

After a while, they put on their swim suits and Grandpa turned on the sprinklers so they could play in the water.



It is so much fun to have them here.  I' hoping they'll be able to come more often this summer.

The results of my MRI were as expected, and I'll be seeing a specialist for spinal surgery.
