Time with Babo

We spent most of Tuesday and most of Thursday with my mom. Tuesday we ate pizza together then headed over to her city park. (I know, it sounds like we only go to parks, but it seems like up there every city has a really, really nice park. It's just a great, cheap way to spend time!) This park even had a splash zone. Too bad the temp was only about 75 and the water was FRIGID! A couple splashes and the kids were done! No prob, right? We'll just head over to the beachy area to play in the sand...
It looks nice, right? This is Lake Saint Clair, on the east coast of Michigan.

We started to play on the sand, but it was super windy, and the sand was gross. Rocky and dirty...Jon almost threw up when he started to dig a hole and picked up a cigarette butt and an old bandaid in one swoop!!! He immediately demanded we move on to the playground area....
I don't actually have pictures of the playground area...but we spent most of our time there. It was a really nice day. Later we headed over to where Mom lives so she could give them a surprise....

BUBBLES!!! They love bubbles, and she does too, so she always comes through in that department!!!
We really had a good time visiting with Mom and Grandma! The kids had a blast! We also spent Thursday with them, when they took us to the Detroit Zoo...so I'm going to post those pictures tomorrow!
