Jim is showing Kyle how to use the remote to to turn on the TV if he wakes up before us the next morning. Kendall was dozing a bit, even though he'd never admit it. We went on to bed and it was quiet within minutes.
Morning came way too fast. We had to have the kids back home by 9:30 so they could get ready for church. I staggered out to the kitchen at 8am to cook them a hot breakfast. They asked for chocolate chip pancakes. I made some, and the kids said they don't taste good. I figured out why. I used semi-sweet chocolate chips and I should have used milk chocolate. I had to ditch the first batch and make some without the chips (didn't have the milk chocolate kind). Jim took them back to their place while I cleaned up the place. It's amazing the effect two kids can have on such a small place. Can you say hurricane? :)
We had rain most of the day. Jim went to Kendall's 3:00 football game. I don't understand football well enough to sit in the rain so I stayed home. Kendall's Little Panthers team won 13-0.
Jim brought back pizza and we relaxed the rest of the evening. The NASCAR race at Chicago was delayed all afternoon and we were looking forward to watching it this evening, but we just heard it's postponed until tomorrow morning. That's good because Frank said he'd drive over after work tomorrow and watch it with us (he gets off work at 11am).

I'd have to vote with the grandsons on the chocolate chips. No substituting semi-sweet for milk chocolate. We were going to watch the race too but maybe we can catch it tomorrow.
I'm back on line for a while.
Glad you're enjoying your visit with the grand kits. Our place sometimes looks like a hurricane and it's just the two of us!
Sounds like you had a really great time with the boys ~ my nearly 6 year old twin grandsons can eat you out of house & home...
Have fun
Donna
ps ~ we are at Rock Crusher Canyon... it is really nice!
How nice that you are able to spend time with your grandchildren. They'll have those memories for a lifetime!
