Visit to Grandma

Pink Ballerina checks out her hair-do! She had it up in a bun! On Halloween night, I got a call from my Grandma Alice. She said, "I'm just waiting her by my door with a bag of candy, waiting to see if any of my kids are going to come! Can you come and see me?" By this time it was past 8 p.m.. and dark...not a good time to drive all the way to Mcminnville.
So we decided, we needed to bring Halloween to Grandma's house a day late! After school, we all got dressed back up in our costumes and drove to Grandma's spot we we could hear her tell stories and sing her songs.
Grandma spoiled all the kids with lollipops. She told them to open the cabinet and take ALL the remaining candy. She said over and over that she didn't want a drop of it left behind. The kids were happy to oblige!
Julianna was particularly filled with Jubilation.
Hyrum and Angel still look as if they could be twins!
Grandma especially enjoyed the little kids. Grandma is so sweet, and I was reminded that all Grandma's still have a little girl inside!
We visited for about an hour. We told stories, we listened to stories, and Courtney showed off her two front missing teeth.
At the end, we walked her to her dining room and waved to all the many grandmas and grandpas there. My kids love visiting her, and Grandma is always so gracious and good at paying attention to each child individually.

We love you, Grandma!
