The award goes to. . .

Nana Bekki & Papa Ed for taking Charlie, Ila, & Gus for the ENTIRE weekend.

That's right, folks, 50 ENTIRE hours of TRANQUILITY that included going to the temple, going to the mall, going out to dinner, watching a movie, and SLEEPING IN.

This is for you Nana & Papa:

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Thank you for loving the kids SO much, for the tractor rides, the baths, the snuggles on the couch, the lawn mower rides, for letting them help you cook, for playing memory match game over and over and over, for wrestling, laughing, teaching, listening, for ALL the story-telling & most of all, for being SO EXCITED & HAPPY to have the kids come to your house so that everyone can MAKE MEMORIES.



It's always refreshing to be given the GIFT of a break, but as always, great to be together as a family once again.

What a blessing it is to have grandparents so close, so that they can take the kids once in awhile. It sounds like you had a great weekend, kid free. Everyone needs that now and then.

Glad to hear you had a great weekend. I must say that I was surprised to hear Randy was willing to give up a weekend of deer hunting, but glad that he did it in order to go to the temple. What a great guy! :)
