Day Two With the Grandkids

Kim and the four younger grandkids

Today was another fun filled day with the grandkids. We are starting to learn just who they are. They are starting to open up and trust us. It is really great to be here with them. We have two more days with them and I think we are not going to want to leave. 

We took them to a quilt show and even the teenage boys were interested once they figured out what it was. It helped that Kim was talking things up to them. Josh also asked questions. The girls showed us the ones they liked. We talked with the featured quilter an learned some.  She asked to see a picture of some of my quilts. She and I talked about processing scraps into usable pieces. Rebekah asked her some questions as well. The boys also asked some questions. It was an experience for them. 

We even dragged them all to a quilt store. The kids saw first hand how their grandfather supports my hobby. They also saw how he picks out as much or more fabric than I do. The boys even commented on it to me.

We did do some fun stuff like, ride bumper cars and play miniature golf.  It was a hoot, even if there were some frustrated feelings. I have been so impressed with how the kids carry themselves. Their parents are doing a great job.
