Shelli and Phil are here to pick up Colton.  They have been quite spoiled the last 2 1/2 plus days.  And we have been able to have the fritter here entertaining us and spreading our kitchen stuff all over the place.  They really packed in lots of stuff in their holiday.  From Harry Potter to golf, from the temple to the massage parlor.  But now their fairy tale is over and its back to their realty (times four!)  And as they go home to the 'times four' we get to go back to our reality which means kitchen stuff that stays in cupboards and toys that stay in playrooms and actually being able to go from room to room with out a 'tag'.  But just watch--I will miss him.  That's just the way it is.

Another week and another 1/2 of another month gone, just like that.
I am grateful for a Sunday to recuperate and boy do I need it.  But it is good for me to see grandma shine in her element.  She is so good with the grand kids, and not with them only.  She is actually great with everybody and all. and I am so blessed because of it.  (And I'm not too bad at it myself, for an onery old grouch!)

Shelli and Phil just left.  Colton will sleep in his own bed tonight and we all continue along as family, and so grateful for all of that am I!
