Grandma traditions...

Since I became a grandma almost six years ago, I have thought about the traditions I would like to have with my grandchildren. I have enjoyed taking them birthday shopping and having parties around the different holidays. Now I have added school shopping. It's a great way to sneak in a little one-on-one time. I like to let Cash and Colby pick where they want to eat and sometimes an activity. It won't be long and I will be taking Grey on a date with Grandma!

It was Colby's turn and we had a delightful day. I asked him where he wanted to have lunch and he quickly said "Gandolfo's" Then he said, "I love that stuff." He likes the breakfast sandwich with sausage, "sausage is better than bacon." 


My favorite preschooler!



The Puppy Barn is next to Gandolfo's and Colby asked if we could go there. I have never been there, and it was fun to let Colby pet all the cute puppies. He said, "Grandma I am getting a dog." I said, "You don't have enough money." He said, "Yes I do and I am getting a dog." Maybe someday!

Next we went shoe shopping, he wanted blue shoes that light up. We found a pair of Adventure Shoes that he liked.

We stopped by Target, and he spied a Batman hat and said, "I love Batman." It wasn't on the list, but he looked so cute I could not pass up buying it for him... and a shirt too!

Our fun activity was walking around Cabella's and some target practice.

My new favorite picture of Colby... he has the sweetest face and that dimple! I love him so much. He said, "Wait until Mom sees me, she will freak out."

Because it was a special day we stopped by JCW's for ice cream. I asked him if he wanted to go through the drive up or go inside, he said inside. It was so fun to be with him, we talked about lots of things. 


Grandma's traditions... they are good for the soul!

(In a few days we will be having  a 
Grandma Summer Science Camp and sleepover!)
