Country Relaxin' In Randolph
We left Canada and drove down to my parent's place in wonderful Western NY. I love my home town....and I loved being there in the summer since usually I'm only there for a visit at Christmas when we're wading thru snow! There was tons of sunshine that allowed for lots of quality time outside.
Love this view of my parent's house! What a wonderful place to spend a week!
Walking practice for the little lady!
DONE!
The kids enjoyed splashing around in the pool!
Old Highchair
My dad managed to pull my old high chair out of the attic - so it was neat to see the kids in that!

Visit to Grandma Bissell
We stopped down to visit my Grandma - it's always so nice to see her. The kiddos loved exploring Great Grandma's room - and enjoyed story time with her!

My parents scored some fantastic toys for the kiddos at garage sales! They had a blast with all the new toys! |
We were thrilled to meet my friend Missy's son, Carsten. :) Watching our kids run around together was entertaining.
Wagon Rides
Grandpa and Bryce shared some special time together on a few wagon rides. Like the highchair - this was from my childhood days! An old classic that I'm sure he carted me around in. :)

Cooking of the pig started at about 8pm on Friday night - and it was done by 2pm Saturday. Many thanks to my husband and my sister for taking the night shift of monitoring the pig cooker - and to my dad for relieving them of their duties around 4:30am. :) Also a huge thanks to my parents for all the hard work they did to put this fantastic party together! Everyone had so much fun - it was great to see family and friends that I hadn't seen in way too long.
