Fact about me: I am really good at removing splinters. Boom. Just like that. I'm good. Haha. Grandpa had a splinter in his finger that had been bothering him for a few days. I had him soak his finger in epsom salt before the big removal. Sawyer of course needed to soak his finger as well.
We got in play time at the park.
Jack bear crawling his way to the park.
Sawyer's new puzzle - complete with magnetic catcher 'net'. Very entertaining, thank you Grandma & Grandpa!
Papa is going to try to do some work in the garage? Wait, hold me!
Sawyer & Grandpa planting the loquat tree together. Luckily it survived the frost a few nights ago.
Strawberries!!!
Gotta have your binoculars :)
We love the roseate spoonbills! Do you see their flashy pink above?
Exploring Merritt Island National Refuge
Sawyer and Grandpa relaxing on the beach.
So this is where Sawyer put the sun visor down on the stroller where my camera was resting. It went over the balcony and amazingly enough, not into the water. None of us saw him do it and he kept saying 'Jack's shoes, Jack's shoes'. Luckily we made the connection that Sawyer thought he'd dropped Jack's shoes, when it was actually my camera. Apparently this wasn't the first time something like this has happened because the park rangers had a long 'hand' tool to reach over the edge and safely rescue my camera. Whew!
Playing on the boardwalk.
Grandma got to see her friend, Helen. She is one of my mom's childhood friend's mom. It had been almost 50 years since they'd seen each other!
Sawyer's parking garage under the couch. He parked them lined-up so neatly.
Grandpa J & Baby J looking good!
Can you see the radish in my mouth? Got down to 32F a few nights ago - brrrr! We covered everything and I don't think we lost anything, although the tomatoes and potatoes look somewhat 'shocked'.
Rehydrating! This was an epic trip that Grandma took the boys on. I was home cleaning/organizing the desk (which I'd been putting off for months!). Meanwhile Grandma was pulling the chariot through sand trails along a power line and hefting it over fences among other things. Good work out and everyone came back happy!
Grandma trying to get everyone to smile and look at the camera. Hehe. We love you Grandma and Grandpa! It was so fun to have you here in our home. Thank you for all your help. You'll probably need a vacation from your vacation! Everyday I would see them serving me or my family in some way. We appreciated it so much! I wish we didn't live so far away. We toyed with the idea of 'running' down to the Everglades to explore, but we all decided that we'd just stay here and relax instead. We all felt like we'd been 'on the go' for a couple of months. It was nice to just relax. Well as much relaxing that happens with a 27-month-old and a 10-month-old :)
Thank you for coming to play with us :) We love you Grandma & Grandpa!!!

What a great visit! I am glad your camera survived the fall!!! I was just thinking yesterday that I needed to think about getting plants started inside next MONTH for my garden and here you are eating your garden. I am all sorts of jealous! LOVE IT!
I'm glad you got to spend some quality time with your parents! It looks like fun. I really miss you Liz. I hope you're doing well. I think of you often. Your boys are so incredibly handsome. You're doing an amazing job!!
