We had a very special visitor come stay with us for a night. Grandpa John, (my dad) drove down yesterday to see the girls and I. He got here at about 1:00 yesterday. Of course Presleigh was so excited to see him that she didnt want to take a nap. I tried to get her down early so she would be asleep before he came but she was fighting it pretty good. He rang the doorbell when he came and she heard..She came out of her room, took one look at him and I knew she wasnt going back to sleep. I knew she couldnt wait to get Grandpa John to play with her, sure enough 2 minutes into his visit she was saying.. Want to play? She showed him her new toys and he asked her all about Preschool. When Charleigh woke up from her nap she was really unsure about Grandpa. She wasnt lettng him out of her sight and wouldnt let m put her down. So we took Grandpa outside to play, pretty quick Charleigh started to warm up to him. P headed for the trampoline.. Grandpa and her jumped for a few minutes. Then she wanted to skip rocks on the pond so we did that. Then she headed for the putting green.. She needed her "gols clubs". "wanna play some gols with me grandpa?(gols- thats how she says golf.. with an S not an F)! So she showed him her putting skills for awhile and then she got started on wanting us to chase her. What kid doesnt want to be chased? It just might be her favorite thing. Once she gets going on it its hard to get her mind on anything else BUT being chased. My dad is so good with her. She bosses him around, "grandpa do this, grandpa do that, no not like that, like this"! All the while he does everything for her with a smile on his face. I feel so blessed to have him around and that my girls get to enjoy him, he is so much fun! When Scott got home we all went out to dinner at PF Changs. Seems like we always take my dad there when he is in town. Presleigh was so tired from not getting a nap that she fell asleep on the way there..it was only 6 o clock! It was so nice having my dad there, Presleigh listens to him and he was an extra set of hands. When he is around Presleigh only wants him to do everything for her. Poor grandpa John gets worked over when he comes to our house! The next morning P woke up and wanted to go get Grandpa John up, so we went and got hi. Presleigh got to play with him while I ran on the tredmill and made everyone French toast. That is Charleighs new favorite :) Soon after Grandpa John had to hit the road. Its a three hour drive back to Enumclaw and he always has lots of work to do. The girls and I had a great time, we always enjoy when he comes to visit. Even though his trips are short he makes up for it with all the time spent playing with Presleigh!
