Ander's entry: an Easter visit to grandma and grandpa's

The trip to grandma and grandpa's took 7 1/2 hours with 4 "poo poo" stops, but once there, it was non-stop fun. Grandma had 3 kittens in the house and we visited them regularly. There were also 4 donkeys to see and feed, 5 big dogs to keep away cuz they mostly wanted to kiss me or knocked me over with their tail-wagging, a cat to chase around the house when I had to stay indoors, and 3 turtles to watch through the glass.

Grandpa was preparing for a camping trip to Utah and I helped him clean the camper. He also took me for a buggy ride around the mines and helped me climb on all the trucks, trailers, tractors and piles of things they have around there. I especially liked sitting in the old buggy frame and pretending I was driving.

Grandma took good care of me and mom, as always, with lots of good cooking and plenty of fun things to do. I picked up Aunt Kim's name fast and she took me for a walk down to her house and helped keep an eye on me.

And, of course, there was the Easter basket(s) that showed up after we returned from church. The Easter bunny sure was messy though, leaving eggs all around the house that I had to pick up.

It was a good visit. I slept a good part of the way home, which is probably why it took 2 hours less.
