Relaxing at Barb & Henry's

Barbara had a day off work on Wednesday and she and Gerry decided to work on some craft projects.  Also, Barbara drove over to Ryan & Dee's and picked up great grandson Griffin to watch him for the day.  That should have been the first clue that not much craft stuff would be accomplished.   Griffin has to be the most held and loved child in the world since he goes from one person's arms to the next on a rotating basis.  Today was no exception.

I'm not too enthused about holding young babies and wait until they are around 2 years old and can walk and talk before I pay much attention to them.  Of course, by then they aren't much interested in talking to me or are running around like a banshee and I can't keep up with them.   Griffin did come over and try to get me up and moving around, but fell a little short of accomplishing this.  Maybe when he is a little older it will work.

Come on old man, get up.

While the girls were ohing and awing over Griffin I took advantage of the fast internet service to download some files and update some programs.  I also brought along my 1T (terrabyte) external disk drive and moved a lot of huge files from my PC to the 1T drive.  That took forever since there was about 200Gig of data being moved back and forth over a USB connection.  Henry just jumped the ante on computer stuff with me since he bought a 3T  drive and I only have the 1T drive.  I wonder if they sell 4T drives now and how much they cost?

Taylor (grand daughter in-law) and Stephanie (grand daughter) came by after work and visited with us for a while.  It's always nice to see them since they are bubbly and cheerful and nice to be around.  They are both RNs and Stephanie works for an invitro clinic while Taylor teaches at a local high school and works part time at a hospital during the summer.

I took time out from all the festivities and went to pick up Grant from his school.  It was a 30 mile drive there and seemed to take forever, but we had a nice chat on the way back and time flew by.  Grant scored a goal in the soccer game at school and also made a sliding tackle to prevent a goal.  The fact that he had on nice khaki slacks and a long sleeve white shirt never entered the thought process.  Looks like some fels naptha will be used in the laundry tonight.  

Jane came by after work and joined us for dinner and then she and Grant headed back to their house.  Barb had prepared a nice spaghetti dinner and we all chowed down on the great food, except for Taylor who had to leave and go home to fix our grandson Sean his dinner.

Once all the kids were gone and it quieted down we visited with Barbara & Henry until late in the evening and then headed back to the motorhome.  Boy, visiting really tires you out.

That was our exciting day, how was yours?
