POPS & "POP POP" (4th of July)

POP POP


Well, Pop Pop flew in Thursday am from Lost Wages and so far we are having a great time....The whole clan met Pop Pop at the Airport and wisked him home to the house for an afternoon of going to the gym and an evening out to dinner. The girls just love it when Pop Pop comes in to visit....They have an Absolute Blast....Pop Pop also got to see Preston for the first time and Preston loves it all as well.


Friday, we all went to the movies (Gilrs saw Mr. Magoriums Wonder Emporium) & Pops and I saw Hancock....Everyone enjoyed the popcorn and the relaxing Air conditioned theatre as it was like 1000 degrees outside...at least....

Then off the the Diamondback game....Had dinner at T.G.I.Fridays and then enjoyed nosebleed seats in the 540th Row at Chase Field......We had no view of the field but we could see the air conditiong ducts just fine......FYI -- Never buy 32nd Row in any of the 300 sections...It was THE VERY LAST ROW......Had to move down about 6 stories just to get a slightly obstructed view of the fireworks....but it was an awesome fireworks display -- best we've ever seen....so all in all a Great day....


Saturday morning saw a very late start -- Breakfast @ 10am and then booking our time share for us to share a vacation in Florida in October with Pop Pop and Grandma Matty. We also headed off to the Home depot for about 30 minutes to build a bird house with the kids for the Home Depot Kids Club monthly event....what fun -- heated competition to see whose bird house was more perfect....The Pop/ Natalie home had upside down windows and some gaps in flooring / Gabe's and Alexxis' home had a crroked roof with a nice gap for air transference and I think the best of all was the Mommy Payton home which was perfect but took 3 1/2 hours to build. Pops and Gabe's homes were FHA so built in 2 minutes.... more to come today pool time and tomorrow......LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
