Weekend

We had little visitors this weekend filling our days with love and laughter.  We visited some old haunts adding to the wondrous memories already stored.  The majority of the toys and such  are packed but Bertie came prepared, bringing some puzzles and games for us to play.  We had some fun with the Tom and Jerry puzzle which I must admit thought was a little difficult for a 4plus child, even Grandad needed some help from super Granny...


 
Honey loved the horse as long as her big brother held her tight, he is such a lovely big brother.
 

 
He was so good taking her on the Hello Kitty ride too on our trip to the arcade and soft play.
 
 
He has certainly come along way from playing on the roll a penny...
 
 
Look at the concentration on his face, they are so good with technology these days.  I am in awe of his skill.
 
Growing up so quickly and yet not too big to still want a kiss and cuddle with his Granny.  He had made us a beautiful card for our new home drawing a castle on the front and writing his message all by himself, what a joy.
 

 
Honey chatters away but we do recognise some of the words, crawls around at the speed of light and pulls herself up and walks around the furniture.  She loved the dog, perhaps a little too much... he was happy to take a break in the kitchen now and again.  A lovely weekend with lots of memories to treasure.
 
Hector is one today, where has the time gone?  I am so looking forward to seeing him on skype later on today, they are having a day out at the Zoo hopefully the weather will hold for them it has been so Spring like all weekend.  I have just been looking at some of the photos that have been sent today, it is so nice to be included in the celebration. 
 
As always thank you for your comments and visits to my little place in blogland.  We decided to do a small shop and have takeaways this weekend so fish and chips were on top of the agenda followed by doughnuts and icecream with a stroll along Skegness beach, it is certainly on the list of things we will miss.
 
See you soon.

    The perfect weekend for the grandparents and children alike. Bertie looks like such a great big brother to little Honey. It looks like he's quite a smart boy too. Congratulations to Hector! I can't believe it's been a year already. I'm glad you had such a fun weekend with your family.
    Blessings, Betsy

    Your little grandson and granddaughter look like they are really close and that speaks very well of your little boy to take such good care of her. When do you make the trip to find your new home? ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

    Those little plump cheeks look perfect for kissing. What a bunch of cuties you have. Do you have any idea of the time period that is expected for the sale of your house?

    They are so cute, and you're right, time flies. Too soon they are grown and gone and we wonder where the years went. Enjoy every minute.

    What sweetie pies and oh the eyes! Loved the castle and message just for you. I remember when Hector was born! I think. Already a year?

    Bertie and Honey on that rocking horse look so cute. Bertie has very good printing for a 4 year old. I have no doubt that card will be a "keeper".

    Your grandchildren are so adorable and thankful Bertie is a kind big brother to Honey. My 3 grandchildren love each other too. Little Lydia enjoyed our hallway, crawling around. sweet times and glad you had a good time on the beach with ice cream. I need to eat another piece of my birthday cake from Sat this evening...with tea, of course! I like Bertie's card too. I love it when our grandchildren draw pictures and give them to us. I got a couple with my birthday card! Happy week!

    I love weekends like that too ! When my 6 year old grandson comes. He lives with his parents in Amsterdam and we don't see them so often. Fortunately there is Skype !

    What a lovely weekend and a very special card. Thank goodness for Skype, that's one bit of technology I'd hate to go back to being without.

    Lovely photos of your sweet grandchildren. Time spent with them is precious. We've just been to see our grownup grandsons in their own homes recently. It was a wonderful reunion after not seeing one of them for two years due to his work commitments. (I shall be sharing on my blog soon).
