Two Weeks In Pictures With Grammie and Papa Tony

We always look forward to and treasure our visits with Grammie and Papa Tony. We only get to see them about once a year so we definitely try to make the most of our time. Calum moved in with Evan which they both thought was pretty exciting even though Evan's sleep was cut short by at least an hour each morning. The boys had a great time and welcomed having Grammie and Papa Tony as part of their daily lives. Each night before bed it became routine to have Grammie and Papa Tony go in for a final good night. It was very sweet!

We took the Bressingtons wine tasting. This was lots of fun, and the wineries we visited were beautiful! We discovered that Old Vine Zinfandel was one of our favorites, and Papa Tony and Geoff were lovers of the white wines and the dessert wine Port.

A very serious Tony tasting wine. He liked some of the white wines.

Love Birds enjoying the beautiful view.

Can these doors be any larger???


Excuse the SOLD OUT sign..This lady nearly got busted when her boss lady walked out and observed her pouring Papa Tony some of his favorite port. Papa Tony is pretty charming!!!

While Papa Tony and Grammie were here Evan had two T-Ball games. He loved having more people to cheer him on. It made him SOOOOO proud!

We also dragged Grammie and Papa Tony on our preschool zoo trip. They were very good sports and got to meet some of our friends too.


And of course when you come to California, a trip to the beach is a must. We had a blast of course. It was a windy day, but we survived. Papa Tony and Calum coming in from getting some water to build sand castles.

I buried Evan as requested.


Peace out Brother... Calum was so cozy (he is a cozy boy) in the sand that he did not want to get out! It was pretty funny. I think he could have fallen asleep like that.

I heart this picture of my boys!

Lovin' the view as much as Mama does!

What a wonderful Grammie to retrieve dropped sandy smarties (Canadian M&M"s), and wipe them clean for eatin'. Grammie believes everyone needs to eat a peck of dirt in their lifetime. Does sand count?

Daddy and Calum sharing a moment.


A hard day of playing at the beach can make one very sleepy!

We had a most fabulous time (as you can see) and this is only part of the pictures. Stay tuned there are more to come!
