Grandma and Grandpa Gant Come to Visit

Grandma and Grandpa Gant came to visit for about a week over Labor Day weekend. We had a nice visit with them. We ate out at some new and favorite restaurants. Jasper got to go to the park quite often, and I got to rest a little more each day than normal. Drew unfortunately had to work late hours most of the time they were there but did at least take all of Monday off.

dinner at Rudy's
breakfast at Kerbey Lane
Jasper has a new favorite food: pancakes!

After breakfast, Grandma and Grandpa said they wanted to get Jasper a picnic table. So we headed out straight to get one. We set it up in the garage when we got home, and seeing as we had some pancake left over from breakfast, we used that to show Jasper how to use the table.

Now, every time he's at the picnic table, he asks for pancakes.




Here are some pictures from a couple days at the park with G&G.






Who needs a swim suit when you're in your own front yard?








Knowing what a fan Jasper is of the Backyardigens, Grandma brought him some figures: Tasha and Uniqua along with a horse. Yes, he does know the different characters by name, although pronunciation of Uniqua isn't as good as Tasha. :)

Grandma and Grandpa brought all kinds of toys, tricks and treats for Jasper. One thing they brought are these magic markers that only color on magic paper.

Here are some additional shots of Jasper playing / snacking at the picnic table with Grandma and Grandpa. They even tried an art project out here. As you can see, pancakes were part of the experience. :)
