Nana & Papa dates

My parents came home and starting making up for some lost time with all the grandkids. There are 13 grandchildren currently so you can imagine when my parents returned everyone wanted some time with them. My parents decided to take each child on a "Nana & Papa Date". They all drew numbers so they knew what order to go in. When Isabelle drew her number she looked at the paper and saw a number one and her response was a huge smile and said, "YES, I knew I could do it!" I think she thought she won the grand prize and she was the only one having the date. Either way it was cute. For her date she decided she wanted to go to a place called Otterville. It is educational entertainment center typically for younger children and there is lots to do there. Apparently I don't take her as often as she would like to go so she knew that's where she wanted Nana & Papa to go with her and she decided she wanted to bring her sister so she could have a friend to play with.

Sorry about the pictures they are all from a phone but I just couldn't resist showing how much fun the girls were having.

First thing's first, feeding hungry bellies



Then off to the face painting station which they LOVE. Mom tends to monitor this one closely but with Nana and Papa they had free reign this time!



Exploring the water



Then making a little time to do ballet



A puppet show for Nana & Papa



Then Isabelle the Doctor starting doing a check-up on Papa (you can see in the back that Katelyn didn't want to leave the water area...another thing that Mom controls when she's there, so she was living it up)





Katelyn showing Papa her fabulous drawing skills



My mom sent me this last picture on my phone and it said "just like mom". My response was, "Yes, I always wear a dress and heels to the grocery store!"



They had a great time spending some one on one with Nana & Papa (not to mention that I got a lot done at home without them!) Thanks Nana & Papa!
