Over the River and Through the Woods.....
We didn't get to see any grandmothers but we did spend our long holiday weekend literally going over the river and through the woods. To visit family and spend time together as a family.
On Memorial Day we went over the river (Schuylkill and Delaware) to visit with my husband's family. We were at the home of his Brother and Sister in law in south Jersey. His sister and brother in law came down from north Jersey so the whole gang was there. The adults were outnumbered by the kids 6 to 10. It was really a fun day of getting caught up with each other, playing games and just hanging out. The back of the property has a pond and some woods so that was our first woods outing. The kids loved seeing lots of huge frogs in the pond.
Then on Tuesday (Paul's birthday) he took the day off and we took the kids to Ridley Creek State Park, a favorite family destination for some hiking and a picnic lunch. The kids had a blast and one of the funest parts is watching Paul share a place he used to enjoy with his parents with his own kids. If I figure out how to post pictures I will share some.
