The Grands

Our grands are at

Nana and Papa's Nest

for a summer visit

Here's what we've been up to.....

We made a trip to the Victoria Public Library

and stocked up on books for my little bookworm

We stopped by the dollar store
it's one of their favorite things to do!!!!

We went to the Victoria

Texas Zoo



Even though they are getting bigger

they still love the zoo

Here's what we saw

A Tiger!!!!

A Female Peacock

and her handsome mate

A Coyote

A Lion

Avery and this guy had

a thing for each other

(Snacks were exchanged for a kiss)

Trace really like this guy

(Monkey see monkey do)

and they loved being up close to the deer

They loved their day at the zoo

One day we went to the

Victoria Educational Gardens

Avery brought bread to feed to the fish

and Trace brought a "play" gun....never know

what dangerous creatures you might run into at the gardens!!!!

We saw lots of pretty flowers

I also put them to work



Avery worked inside

while Trace helped me outside with

some gardening chores

and we went to the beach

We took a boat ride

and did a little fishing

We saw the Lydia Ann Lighthouse at Port Aransas, and

also lots of dolphins while we were on our boat ride

Trace gets a little fishing advice from Papa

We went to the Aquatic Center

in El Campo with my neighbor

and her grandchildren

the girls were close in age and really enjoyed

playing together

and Trace was so good to entertain Patton (5)

They loved the big, long, curvy slide

and the ropes

They had a great time at this

indoor swim park

Later this evening we are going

over to my neighbors

for hot dogs

and more fun time with her

grandchildren

Trace and Avery are having a great

time at "Nana" camp as they like to call it.

There is more fun planned for the

rest of the week

and then their mom and dad will

meet me in Waco Saturday to

do the "SWAP"!

Grands are great and Papa and I

are loving our time with them.

Every Little Birdie says -

God really does save the best for last!!!

Grands are the best!!!!
