We are nearing the end of summer, a time when schedules are a little more flexible than usual, and I heard through the grapevine that Grammy was home alone this weekend. So…I thought it might be time to load up the kiddos and pay sweet Grammy a visit. Low and behold, she had a few surprises up her sleeve for the kiddos as well.
She had been to an antique shop and scored this perfect little baby carriage for Lucy, complete with an antique little orphan Annie (with Sandy) doll to put in the carriage. Lucy knew just what to do with that baby carriage. Up and down the halls she went pushing her baby. 
Captain Obvious, Sam, reminded Grammy that he needed a surprise too, so he go a little spending money to take with him to the toy store. What did he buy? A ninja turtle beanie toy, surprise surprise. He'd been praying to Jesus and Santa for just such a gift for a whole week. At least one of them is faithful...
It's always fun to take a walk around the yard and meet all the new animals.
Lucy was less than pleased that she got left behind for the garden tour.
We had lunch with Grammy, and, before we left, I made sure to take some pictures of the little people with their sweet Grammy...
Grammy took the kids to feed bread and apples to all the barnyard animals. And, Lucy saw no reason why she couldn't crawl right under the fence and join them.
And, what had turned out to be a wildly popular toy in our household these days?
Why, the antique baby carriage! Sam adores pushing baby Lucy around in it!
Thank you Grammy for the nice goodies, the yummy lunch,
and the quality time together. We love you!
