Having a Play Day ...

Inside & Out
Dec. 23, 2011
Nathan, Katie and our grandchildren arrived late on the 22nd ...
here the kids are so happy to be together ...
sitting with grandpa ...
while he searches for a movie on Netflix...
then after a movie ...
sitting in the hallway with all their new electronic devices ...
the Nintendo DSI ...
where all four of the older ones could play a game ...
against each other wirelessly ...
 James, Kaylin and Ella were getting frustrated ...
because Craig and Avery were winning ...
it was time for all the kids to head outside ...

Even though we have not had a lot of snow ...
the kids had a blast ...
sliding down the hill ...
we had to have a guardian stationed at the gate ...
to make sure they would travel out into the field and not into the fence ...

When everyone had enough of the outdoors ...
it was time to come in and play games ...
they had a big game of Rummikub (Tile Rummy game) ...
before dinner ...
Grandpa had the attention of the kids ...
performing his magic trick ...
of pulling his thumb apart from his one hand ...
the kids were mesmerized ...
 he had to show them a couple times ...
the look on their faces was "priceless" ...
