WE HAD FUN!!


So Life keeps getting in the way of way; but for 4 days - last month! - I got to play with grandkids; Crystal, who I hadn't seen in 6 years, Kyle and my "step" grandson, Travis. ISo here are the three beginning the visit - can you guess which one is the tallest?
She is really an interesting young lady and we went shopping and shopping.

Then there was the bowling where everyone got into the picture.

Laurie and Eric -



Crystal and Aunt Laurie



Me and Crystal


Crystal and Kyle then Crystal and Travis









and finally one day an afternoon at the pool at Eric's mother's apt.



After a day or two she ventured to get between the boys, but they were the same kids and loads of fun. They stayed in the water and I was on the side and we had a "pitch the water soaked ball" contest and I'd thow it at them and they had to return it as fast as they could. Got a whole series of those pixs but won't bore you at all. Some great action shots of them leaping for the ball - what you don't see is how I got wet because they thought it was funny not to squeeze the water out of the ball first! It was great.

The kids got along great together and Travis and Crystal hit it off REALLY well. Awe teenagers! Anyway, wanted to FINALLY get some info up....about her visit. The rest of my life...well, maybe I will write a short story some day but today isn't it.
So I did get some of the pixs posted and it seemed like a long, tedious process. Must be an easier way but too hungry now to try and figure it out. Hope you enjoy a look at the kids and the beautiful blue "pool" water! Smiles from Sunny Tucson
P.S. What I didn't mention is Crystal is 4'11" and the spitting image of her mother; Travis is about 2" taller, maybe and the image of his Dad and Kyle is 6'3" and we're not sure who he looks like through all the facial hair. Interesting brunch of kids. Loved every second!
