Weekend with Grandpa

Grandpa was able to come on the best weekend ever!  Since I was sick with strep throat, I wasn't going to be very helpful in setting up the trampoline.  Luckily Dad was there and the boys did a great job helping.  I took some pics though. 
They all wanted to be such helpers.

After the screws were all put in, it was time to hook on the springs.
Christian and Dad did a great job getting it all set up so quickly!



Beckam got the 1st jump, because he had to go in and take a nap! :)

He knew what to do right away, and LOVED it!
The easy part was done.  Now it was time for the enclosure.

That part took a little bit longer, but Kyler remained a helper!



Lots of in and out with the shoe string to hold the net in place! (Thanks for teaching your son to sew Shenna!:)

Jaden broke it in with a few back flips!

They were beyond happy it was done.
Later that afternoon Jaden had a soccer game, which grandpa was really excited to go to.  Sadly, I didn't get to go.  But I heard the game was pretty tough.  Jaden still had a great time!
That night the boys picked up Fadi's for dinner and we watched a movie, and grandpa even brought ice-cream!  Beckam had his first ice-cream cone.


Didn't take him long at all to figure it out.
Thanks for spoiling us all grandpa!
Grandpa had given Jaden Super Mario Galaxy for Christmas, so it was only appropriate that they played a bit and Jaden showed him how far he'd gotten!  Grandpa was really impressed!
The boys had a fun time working on a hard level together!
Sadly, the weekend went very quickly.  The boys sure wish that grandparents lived closer!  I was SO GRATEFUL for grandpa coming, and giving me a weekend off to get better!  It's nice when life just "works out" sometimes.
Look at those handsome boys! Thanks for visiting Grandpa!  We love that you have to travel through Houston!
