I went to visit Jaime, Ben, Maple and Alaska the end of October. I spent two wonderful weeks there and had so much fun being with them and being able to hug Maple and Alaska and give them all my stored up grandmotherly love!
Another neat thing was being able to be a part of Maple's first trick-or-treating experience. She actually got to trick or treat twice. Before Halloween we all gathered at the library - then the kids and parents paraded to downtown Boone where they trick-or-treated at all the stores.
Then on Halloween, the Mall had the kids come trick-or-treating -- Maple was so cute and such a little trouper. We were lucky to go a little earlier to the Mall so she could get started right at 5:00 before too many kids got there!
Another big event that only a Grandma can love is the fact that while I was there Alaska broke through his first two teeth. Although it wasn't a pretty situation, GramZee loved being able to experience it.
Man, I wish we lived closer!
