The kids and I took a much needed vacation to visit Great-Grampa Anderson... I'm not sure how 'needed' he may have found it, but I think for the most part we were able to rub along fairly well all together :). The first full day we were there we mostly played outside at his house. The only pictures I managed to take were all of the play-area. I used to love these swings as a kid, so it was great for me to see my kids playing here too. We also went walking in the woods and up and down the driveway--or rather, down and back up. We noticed lots of wild black-raspberry brambles, which we attacked after church on Sunday, and we were looking for deer, wild turkey, and pheasants. We found some feathers, though we did see the deer and some turkeys later in the week.

 |
| he was also really, really happy to be outside! and could have easily played here for the vast majority of every day, if only his sisters would play with him... unfortunately, they wanted to play elsewhere too... |

They look like they are having a blast. Good job documenting the trip so well. Stills doesn't remember a lot of his trip to Grandpa's house.
