Probably not what she signed up for

My grandmother made a surprise visit to our house this weekend. My parents and sister came down for an early birthday celebration and so she decided to join the fun. As you view the rest of the pictures, please keep in mind this is my children's great-grandmother.


Here she is jumping on the trampoline with my niece.


Now the great-grandmother took a spill.


Here's she hanging out with Wingman in the trampoline. He is still learning to jump.


Next, she was a real trooper and climbed in the bouncey house with all those wild great-grandchildren of hers.


First, how many grandmothers or great-grandmothers can or would be willing to do such things. We are truly blessed to have her in our lives. We had fun visiting. She played trains, legos, and listened to the outrageous tales of those children. We had a great weekend with her. Thanks for the visit and we hope you come again.

Wow!! Not many great-grandmothers can do all that. Actually, *I* don't do all that!

Great pictures! Reminds me of all the stories we would hear about Granny Cawthon- being 90 something and being on her knees working in the garden and such. Guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

What wonderful memories for the kids - we are a little envious of the blue sky and sun as we sit in our 30 inches of snow
