WHILE THE PARENTS ARE AWAY THE GRANDPARENTS AND KIDS WILL PLAY

The day after I left for Baton Rouge Ben left for High Adventure in the Mountains in Central Idaho.

The night before Ben left, he woke up Rachel and asked her to cut off his hair.

I guess that we missed out on quite the laugh fest.

The finished product.

Looks like Grandma touched up around the ears.

That's a lot o' hair.

I LOVE Ben's hair short. I hear that the girls like it too.

My mom taught Rachel and Sari to sew. I have helped Rachel make pajama pants before and Sari has sewn little things, but my mom really taught them the good stuff. She even made their pattern!

I love my oldest!

Sari (is my) love!

The finished product. This is Rachel's half body shot.

This is Sari's finished skirt. The zebra stripes are SO SO SO Sari!

One of my parents' favorite things to do is Geo caching. They really love it and find a lot of cool stuff.

Matthew, Sari, Daniel, my dad, and Joseph near a cache whose location I shall NOT disclose! But if you live in Spokane, near Whitworth, you might know where this is...

Matthew, Sari, Daniel, my pops, Rachel, and Joseph at another location.

My kids LOVE LOVE LOVE doing this with their grandparents and spending time with the Hathaways! They can hardly wait to see them again.

I am sure there is a picture some where, but my dad also did some wood carving with the little boys. They loved that, too!

THANK YOU so much Mom and Dad! You did such a great job! Thanks for sharing your passions with my kids.
