Grandparent's Day

I had Grandparents Day in Arkansas with Emeri in October.  

In November Hannah and Sophia were having it at their school.  I happened to find this draft in my files.  I had been waiting to get the grandparent photo and then forgot about it!!  So, here is a very late post.  Since the kids have already started summer vacation!

The week began for them with a Muffins for Mommy day when the mommies came to visit.
There was also a Donuts with Daddy day.
And a Thanksgiving Dinner with the parents day.
Then it was Gripz with Grandparents.
No, not gripes with grandparents.  Although I'm sure there could be several gripes about grandparents.

Do you know what Gripz are?  I'd never heard of it.

Gramsi and I (Nana) both visited.

Gramsi first went around with Sophia while I went to Hannah's class.

The children shared something special about their grandparents and then the grandparents shared something from their school days.  Many of the grandparents attended one-room or two-room schoolhouses.  And walked to school (uphill both ways, right?!)

After about 1/2 hour, Gramsie and I traded girls.

Sophie showed me her art work.

Now, give me a good smile, I tell her.

Self portrait!

There was a photographer taking pictures so we stood in line for that.

The day ended with an assembly.  A couple teachers shared people they were thankful for who made a difference in their lives.

The kids did a little dance.

Why, grandchildren, of course!!  

And we are unthankful that Gramsi has moved to Wisconsin.  I know the girls are missing her!!
