Elizabeth and Alex Blog from Grammy & Pop Pop's House

Elizabeth and Alex are writing blog messages during their stay at Grammy & Pop Pop's House so Kirk and Kath won't miss them as much. Here is the first entry:




Dear Mom and Daddy,

Here's how we spent our day. We had a slumber party with Grammy last night, so we slept in until almost 8:00 a.m. We got up and watched The Backyardigans and then ate pancakes, bacon and fruit for breakfast (We were co-presidents of the Clean Plate Club!). After we cleaned up the house and dishes, Grammy took us to the big pool, where we played and swam for about an hour. Alex and I like to do double cannonballs holding hands. A nice man told Grammy what well-behaved children we are.

Then we came home and had an inside picnic while we watched The Shaggy Dog movie. We did a good job of eating all of our salami, cheese, bread, grapes and carrots. Next Alex went for a nap while Pop Pop took Elizabeth on a bike ride. (She's getting good at balancing on the bike. She decided she would take the training wheels off when she comes back at Christmas!)

Next Elizabeth went with Grammy to get her nails done, and Alex had just got up from his nap when we got home. PopPop took us swimming in the pool while Grammy made dinner. When we came out of the pool, we both got showers and shampoos (we smell really good!) Again, we were co-presidents of the Clean Plate Club, as we ate all of our grilled chicken, french fries, broccoli and salad (well, no salad just cucumbers for Alex!)

PopPop put the new stunt race track together for Alex. We watched a Little Einsteins and had milk and a cookie. We just finished brushing and flossing, and we are off to bed for stories.

We miss you both very much, but Grammy and PopPop are taking good care of us. We'll talk to you in the morning.

Hugs and kisses from Elizabeth and Alex xxxxoooo

PS (from Elizabeth): I love you mama and daddy. Say hi to Xiao Ju and Mr. Liu.
