It's Been Way Too Long
Drew and I have been having a good time together. On Friday evening after work, we headed back out to Antioch to hang out with GrampC and Mollie. Drew and GrampC played so hard on Friday evening. After much convincing that it was ok to play out side even if the sun had gone "night-night", Drew had fun picking the grapes and throwing them down the drain.
It was such a relief for this old Grammy when on Sunday Drew allowed GrampC to help him go potty at breakfast and stayed home with him so I could run a couple of errands. Such good bonding time.
Hopefully it will be cool enough this afternoon that Drew and I can do something fun since tonight Mommy and Daddy will be returning from their trip and this Grammy can go home and get some "real sleep".

New adventures in Gold Country!
Yes, I know it is scary having a Chuck & a Charlie together for any extended period of time. It must be the name as they both were full of comments that kept everyone laughing!
The campground Rana found was Coloma Resort which is along the banks of the American River not too far out of Placerville. What a wonderful campground! We could have done anything from white water rafting to hot air balloon rides. Our choice...walk the short distance to Sutter's Mill and take in a little bit of that California history.
Besides relaxing by the campfire, we were able to play a little bit of lawn bocce ball and played cards. Charlie & I taught Rana how to play cribbage. We must be good teachers since Matt & Rana kicked our butts!
The highlight of the trip came yesterday while fixing breakfast, we watched the people camping next to us in their new BIG BEAUTIFUL RV pull out while their electric cord was still plugged in. Matt ran after them yelling to stop, which they did....a little to late. Lucky for them the cord pulled out in tact. Can't say as much for the power box. Don't request site 10. It will be out of commission for a little while!
Next time we do this trip, we would like to bring the girls and their families along. It would be nice to have the campsites right on the river however, after careful consideration this Grammy decided as much as she loves Drew, she didn't want to go for a swim playing chase the ball (his favorite game camping)!

Kissing Cousins
On Sunday after church, my Aunt Connie, Jodi, & I took the girls out to Hannah Nicole's to do a little wine tasting. Since Matt also had to work on Sat. and was unable to attend the BBQ, he and Rana (his girlfriend) joined us at Hannah Nicole's. It was such a beautiful day sitting outside relaxing and sipping wine. What a way to end a weekend and!

Uncle Matt Made Me Do It!
Drew now takes delight in saying "Giants Matt" whenver he sees Matt's picture. Should we really confuse him now and teach him "Go Twins"?!
