Camp Grandma 2008

Kelli's parents (Grandma and Pop-Pop) have a tradition that every year they get all the grand kids together and keep them for about a week. This tradition was started by Kelli's grandma; who called it "Camp Grandma." The first two years it was just Hunter, and this year it was just Hunter and Natalie, which made the scheduling a little easier. Kelli is starting to wonder if Hunter may be driving before he has cousins on her side of the family! (Just teasing Shannon, Pat and Quinn :-)) They went for about a week just before Halloween; this was the first time Natalie had been left overnight. Kelli went down with the kids and stayed the weekend to make sure that Natalie would do OK, and she did great, so Kelli left them for a week and Grandma and Pop-Pop drove them back. To see the WHOLE slide show go to http://www.mcnierney.net/, but here are some highlights. They went to Ocean Journey, the pumpkin patch, the Butterfly Pavilion, jumped on the trampoline, played with the new puppies and lots of fun stuff.

What a fun idea! I am going to tell our mom's about it. :) However, unless we move back to Utah I guess we couldn't take advantage of it. It sounds like your kids had fun. I can't believe how big they are getting!
