Growing

I have noticed that grandchildren grow even faster than children.  It's just not right!  They are suppose to stay little longer! But alas, telling them doesn't work, bricks on their heads doesn't work, even not buying any bigger clothes doesn't work....sigh.  Instead I guess I will enjoy each new age and stage as it comes even if that is too fast.  Stole these from Lex's Facebook page **grin**

He's 10 months old now!

Home again!

We are home again from another grand adventure!  I do think I'm starting to really get into this whole retirement thing *cheshire cat smile*.  This time around we went over to the Houston area to go to Texas Renaissance Festival.  We also had some friends join us on this trip!  We drove over on Friday, did the Faire on Saturday and Sunday, then chilled out and played in Houston on Monday and Tuesday and drove home Wednesday.  Our friends came home Monday night but had as much fun at the Faire as we did!  In the couple weeks leading up to the Faire, we were all busy sewing costumes.  Mykhal made new tunics, a vest, pants, and a cloak for himself with only a bit of guidance and help cutting things out from me!  He could be quite the tailor let me tell you!  I made Kerrie a cloak as well as making Russ two more pair of pants, and a vest.  Russ and I had both ordered some additional costuming pieces online and picked up a few more the first day of the faire.  So much fun!  My friend Jessie made the costumes for herself and family (with a bit of help from me so it would go faster).  The kids stuck together and did their own thing and we all had such a wonderful time!  We did meals together at the camp site and that was fun too.  Can't wait till next time!  Ok here are some pictures ....
