Day Four

A tidbit about us - we haven't kept up with the perishable pantry items expiration dates. 

Yesterday Grandpa fixed pancakes for breakfast with orange juice. 

I asked him how the boys like them - he said they weren't very good.

Expiration date was sometime in 2013.

Be prepared Corinne, Garrett is blaming the orange juice for his upset stomach yesterday.

That would also explain my sour stomach on Tuesday morning. Probably the waffles he made.

Grandpa took the boys to the Daly's while he helped them finish up their

on-line banking. The Daly's offered to take everyone to lunch at Wendys.

Next Grandpa took the boy to the Rosenbruch Museum.

It wasn't the most exciting place, but it was a new experience.

We also fail as grandparents who make their grand kids practice their instruments while visiting.

Garrett much prefers the piano over his violin.

He played everything once and then disappeared.

Here is walking towards the "Theatre".

The weather was ideal. It was windy, but I think that really helped with keeping the bugs away.

I always take a sweater or lap quilt. It does get windy in the canyon and my lap gets cold.

The pants that were packed were too tight and small for the boys.

New pants for school will be needed!

Here is the entrance to the Amphitheatre.

We invited Aunt Sharlotte & Uncle Randy to come along. I like sitting on the edge on the side.

That way it is easier to see - less heads in the way. 

Sharlotte was very sweet with Garrett. She said his eyes just bugged out as some of the

scenes took place.

This was our view to the stage.

There is action from all angles here.

Right side of stage.

Left side of stage.

This is the bottom of the canyon where they actually made a

waterfall that rushed - I mean rushed down on to and over the edge of the stage.

Garrett ran out of juice after the intermission. He kept wrapping himself up in his blanket,

but couldn't get comfortable enough. At each scene change he would perk up

to see what was going on. He went straight no bed - no potty or brush teeth or clothes change I think.

Richard took care of those items before bed. It was going on midnight before

the evening was done.
