Back from an extended Vacay

My mom and I went to visit my grandparents this past weekend. Also, we had to check up on my Uncle Chalie. We spent a bit of time visiting him in the hospital. He seems to be getting better, slowly, but definitely getting better. Really, isn't that all that matters? The hospital is in downtown, off the expressway, so my grandmother was able to go with us a few times. Otherwise, she would never drive the expressway. My Uncle was having stomach problems and was slowly starting to eat again. He had a breathing treatment while we were there and pretended he was smoking a cigar. What a nut- glad his humor is back.

We hung out with my grandparents and I did some work around the house. It is crazy how I turn into the electrician, carpenter, painter, etc when I go to their house. They need work done, but I am not sure how they think I can do all of this stuff. I just wing it and give it my best shot. One day, I was using the miter saw cutting wood for my grandfather. YIKES!

My mom and I decided to go to the beach to meet up with some family members. We were only going to stay 1 night but had so much fun we decided to stay another night! We both called into work and enjoyed a fantastic day at the beach. There was about 40 of us staying in the huge house. We stayed up all night playing games and just hanging out. I wish we could had stayed longer, but we figured we had to go back to work. boo! I hope we can do it again next summer, but stay a lot longer!


Picture of the house we stayed at and the ocean! Love them both!
