Trip to visit Grandpa and Grandma Woodbury April 8

April 7th Shancy, Mom, and I decided a trip to Mackay would be fun. And it was. Us with six boys in toe, we headed up to see Grandpa and Grandma Woodbury. It wasn't warm outside by any means, but it was warm with love and stories and time spent reminiscing and just being together. Shancy helped Grandma get an MP3 recorder working to record Grandpas stories as well as some of Grandmas. My boys loved to just sit and listen to the stories. They love to go and play downstairs with the air hockey, ping pong and pool table. It warmed up enough the last day there to go out and rake their yard that the mice and voles had made a terrible home of. It was a lot of work and the boys worked hard.
My beautiful and talented Grandmother!

Zane and Holdan had so much fun!
Holdan on his bike and Grandpas cool smooth drive! My boys look forward to this too.
Outside playing and trying to stay warm!
Stories-I love to go there and just relax. The spirit of peace and love is so strong in their home. We brought dinner the first night and made it there. Then the boys talked their Grandma Price into making danish hotcakes for them the next morning. Good food is a requirement for a happy visit, and we are never let down. Shancy made the best brownies, yummy!
I asked Zane to smile so I could take a picture of his hat ring thing, this is what I got! What a goober! He is so much fun.
Ruxton had Grandpa Woodbury's trick game figured out before the first day was gone, he loved it. And none of his brothers took the time to figure it out! The top picture is the first of the trick...
And the result is that he got the chain to catch the ring! Good job Bud.
Holdan's picture of the ring hat is not much better than Zane's!
Thanks for a great weekend Grandma and Grandpa, it is always so fun to come and spend time there. Thanks you for such a wonderful home full of love and the spirit I hope that I can emulate that in my life! My children and I love you very much!

Loved the pics of grandma and grandpa. Man, I wish I was there and could do things like that. Very cool your boys get to know their great-grandparents.
