A Visit from Grandma and Grandpa

Sandy and Doug came for a visit on Thursday night and stayed until yesterday afternoon. It was great to see them and the kids had a great time playing with them. I also had 2 small dance performance (1 on Friday and 1 on Saturday), so they acted as much needed babysitters while I was gone. Yesterday, while we were all watching, Penny pulled herself up on Theo's little wooden chair. She sat down just as we were trying to take her picture, so we posed her in the the standing position again to capture the moment. While taking the picture, Andy was saying, "This is not posed....honestly, it's not posed." Sandy stayed at the house with me and knitted while Penny slept and I worked on some reindeer overalls for Theo. I cut out a pair for Penny, too, but my sewing machine started acting weird just as I was finishing Theo's. I'll have to sew hers up sometime this week. They turned out really cute. I'll post a picture once Penny's are finished. Doug, Andy and Theo went to the Whatcom Museum exhibit on shipbuilding and to the Children's Museum exhibit about industry on the waterfront. They took some great pictures and said they had a great time. Now, Sandy and Doug have gone home and it's just the 4 of us again. Today should be a simple, relaxing day.....gotta go get ready for church!
