We went to Gram's house to visit. This particular day was one of those rare perfect days. Gram and I sat on the porch and talked while the kids ran around the yard. We had some issues with the bird feeder and dumping out all of the seed, but generally they were very good.
There is an old tree in the back yard that has had four generations of children climbing in it's branches. It was out of this tree that Daddy fell and hit his head. Before the fall he could hear any song and play it on the piano. According to Gram when the circus came to town they used to tie the elephants to this tree.
Gram has a plum tree on the side of the house that the children discovered, so we made an event of it getting all the plums we could reach and enjoying them. The boys brought their light sabers and tried to use them to reach more plums. Gram used her cane to pull branches down so we could reach. Elle made the biggest mess of herself. But, that certainly wasn't the end of it. Later she found a date stamp and stamped herself ALL over.
