grandparents

 The boys are seriously blessed with fantastic Grandparents. We celebrated Grandma Ellen's birthday on the last trip to Idaho. The photo above shows what that entailed. She has repeated told me that the wild antics of our boys are actually what she enjoys most. Do you know how great it is to hear that as a mom? SO GREAT.
 Grandpa Ken is the Weapons Master. He crafted shields for the boys on the Saturday afternoon we were in town. Oh, ya, no biggie. He just heads out to the garage for 20 minutes & whips up some childhood dreams come true. Not to mention these were to accompany the tridents the boys had designed & he had ready for them when we arrived.
 Then Grandma Ellen goes and blows our mind with her mad skills with a paintbrush. BAM! Parker's is the lion, Kaleb has the sun, the bear is Aden's, & Collin of course chose Leonardo.

Seriously, SO BLESSED.
