Lots of Work--Lots of fun!

March has been a busy month.  I went to Boise March 6 to stay with Ky while Clay was in Florida on a military assignment.  It was a lot of work, as I helped Ky with the kids and some of her organizational goals!  But, most of all, it was a lot of fun.  I love being with my grandkids--all of them, and I was fortunate to be able to spend lots of time with Kres and Beckham, and some time with Trey, too. 

I wrote a story for Kres about us, my animal friends, and hats.  Ollie Elf was a main character, too.  Here is one of the pictures from the book.
Here we are after Ollie switched our hats!
I went to preschool with Kres and Ella (his cousin), and read the story to the class.  They all loved it!

Kres loves to build things.  So, I took my blocks and spent a lot of time playing blocks with him. Beckham joined in the fun, too.
Like I said, he loves to build things, and here he is with another creation.

Trey came over, and helped build with blocks, too.  After they built the towers, they played "block bowling"--can you guess what that was?

Trey also helped Ron put together some shelving for Ky's garage.  They both worked hard to get the job done!  Thanks, Trey!

Beckham's Aunt Amber decided he would be an adorable little girl--so she gave him a St. Patty green ribbon for his hair!  Beckham is very tolorent of everything, so he just went along with it!  (and he is adorable--boy or girl!)
Everytime I put my walking shoes on, Kres, wanted to "tie" them.  It was fascinating watching him weave those laces until not an inch was loose.  I think he has the idea, but it took Trey and I about 10 minutes to "untie" my shoes! 

Let me tell you, those "ties" were a work of art!
All good things must come to an end, and Kres hates it when anyone leaves.  He loves his cousins!
Well, it was nice to be have something really worthwhile to do, so I enjoyed my time in Boise.  Thanks Ky, Kres and Beckham for a fun 3 weeks!  And, thanks, Trey for coming to visit and help us out.
