Grammy's arrival and day # 1 ~ LEGO Helicopter

An interesting ride to the airport...ran over a skunk!! PeeU...thank goodness I didn't hit it but managed to straddle it!! That would have been a nice smelly TEXAS welcome for Grammy....Then as we arrived in S.A. they had the highway I normally take closed and a detour, Ekkk...Then finally upon arriving at the airport they had the drive into the airport CLOSED!! UGH....I finally managed to find a different entrance into the airport!! We made it with an hour to spare, LOL, I left a wee bit early!! That is okay because Mommy always has interesting things to look at and play with in her truck! We call it the giant playpen!! LOL

Grammy's plane was 20 minutes early, YEA!!

It was so good to see Grammy....and Michael ran to her in the airport and gave her a big welcome HUG!!

We had a decent ride home from the airport other than me taking a wrong turn and having to circle a block to get back to where we were, ugh!! We arrived home last night at 12:30am from S.A.

Michael had a power nap on the way home and was wide awake when we got home! He finally fell asleep at 2:30am...Mommy was whipped!!

Today we took Grammy to storytime at the library and then went out to eat at Olive Garden, Mmmmmm delicious! Then we took Grammy shopping for summer clothes...(they are on clearance here at the moment)...Michael was promised (if he was good) that we would take him to Target to look at the toys...While I was picking up a few household items Grammy and Michael were checking out the toy aisles...They had a Lego Helicopter in the shopping cart and I didn't pay to much attention as to the age of the toy and the detail...LOL...should have...

Below are photos of Michael and Grammy after 2 hours of working on putting the Helicopter together....(I was taking a nap, YES)!! I laughed when I woke up and they were still working on the helicopter...Mommy to the rescue...Grammy had had enough and I finished it. It is honestly a toy that Michael can't play with as he is a bit ROUGH with it and I keep having to put it back together...We finally convinced Michael to put it up for the NIGHT!! I'm thinking super glue sounds good!! LOL....
