We were delighted to be invited
to Grandparents' Day 2018 with Kate!
#1 Grandpa and according to Kate,
spoiled by Nonnie!
Her little notes to us have made their home on the fridge now!
It was a fun time. We had lunch, visited, watched the 4th graders perform their folk dances and I even did the Cotton Eye Joe with Kate! And then, to our surprise, Kate asked informed us that we would be checking her out early from school and coming home with us! She did and we had a great visit with her the whole weekend and Saturday afternoon, her brother Jack joined us.
Mom and Dad had a date to a boxing competition …
fire department vs. the police department …
Guns and Hoses facing off!
Can you guess who won? Firefighters rock!!!
After church on Saturday night, the gym was all set up for the Ninja course and the small gym with an obstacle course and bounce house for the little ones. And free food for everybody!
This proved to be a more difficult course than the Ninja Warriors they are used to, but they still had fun and always like a challenge.
All in all, it was a lazy, rainy weekend. Sleeping late on Sunday morning, pancakes and bacon, and iPad time. Gee, I remember this.
Seems one day they're right there with you in the middle of everything …
Now it's this!
Sweet!

Looks like everyone enjoyed themselves. I love Grandparents Day. So nice that Daddy took Kate out for a special time together.
Awww so much fun!! This will be the first year we will miss Grandparents day at school for a very long time. It just happens to be scheduled for the same day we are going away for a couple of days. Makes me very sad to miss... since our Jake will be in middle school next year and they do not have it in middle school. This would have been our last :-( Oh well. Lots of good memories from those we attended. Yours looks like so much fun. Great pictures! Thanks for sharing.
You are such good grandparents...and I know that you've made some wonderful memories, not only for yourself but also for your grandchildren. What a blessing!
Glad the firefighters won!
A special dad to take his daughter out on a special date. She looked lovely!
Nonnie, The dad taking Kate on a date, just touched my heart, so sweet. I know you loved your grandparents day. Our children do love us so much, don't they. Looks like lots of fun things happened on your weekend. Blessings to everyone, xoxo, Susie
Grandparents' Day at school... what could be better? Kate is ADORABLE and how great that her dad took her on a special date since they had to miss the dance. I love your photos and the wonderful memories you are making with her!
Everyone has a good time at your place. Love the little notes they wrote. What a sweet dad to take his daughter out when she felt better!
I absolutely love the notes they wrote to you both! It is things like that I use my laminator for!!! Memories you want to save forever! What a great day with your grandkids!!! I love those pictures from the daddy daughter date! How sweet!! You have created a beautiful family!!!!!!!
It does sound like you had a good weekend. Our Grandparent's Day at PCA isn't until Oct. 19, so we are looking forward to that. I heard/read several years ago that a girl gains her sense of self worth because of her relationship with her dad. It looks like Miss Kate is in good hands. That was such a sweet and sensitive thing for Dad to do.
Grandparents day. How exciting! Look like you had a good time.
