We had a great time at Pops and Grandma's and Lucy was spoiled rotten by yet another set of grandparents. She really enjoyed dying Easter eggs with Grandma, blowing bubbles in the backyard, playing with and kicking balls in the backyard, riding the tiger rocking horse, jumping nonstop around the house and landing on the big bean bag or with all of the beanie babies. She marched right in and went to Grandma's stash of pennies, which Lucy has a great affection for, especially when they can be used to gobble up jelly beans from the gumball machine. As usual, Uncle D was a trooper and pretty much did whatever Lucy asked of him, including going up and down the basement stairs a zillion times. Lauren coloring? Well, Lucy got a giant Tigger and Pooh coloring book while we were in town and Aunt Lauren spent about an hour coloring a large picture of Piglet. It was perfect and just when she was putting the finishing touches on it and only had the ears and nose to go, Lucy came over, grabbed a green crayon and scribbled in the nose. In Lucy's words, "it was hilarious!"
And opossum poop? Pops and Lucy have plenty of inside jokes, but this one might perplex just about anybody. One of them yells, "who wants opossum poop?" and they both (or the whole room) holds up there hand and says, "I DO!!" I dunno.
Another memorable moment from the trip? Walking into the kitchen, peaking around the open refrigerator door and seeing Lucy sitting inside the refrigerator with Pops sneaking her potato chips. Good thing that what happens at Pops' stays at Pops'!
