A Vacation at Grammy and Grampy’s!
Hi guys! It’s me, Liam, and I feel like I haven’t written one of these things since I was a little kid!
Mommy and I flew on a big airplane to come and see Grammy, Grampy, Uncle Matt and all my aunts and uncles. And Charlie too! My daddy couldn’t come because the Navy said he had to clean the boat. Or something like that.
🎶We had a secret!
I didn’t tell you before but MY DADDY IS HOME! He went out on the big aircraft carrier, the same one my Aunty Marla was on, and he was gone for a long time. That’s one of the reasons Grampy stayed with us so long. We didn’t tell anybody because daddy didn’t want any bad guys to know it was just mommy and me at the house. When Grampy left he said I had to be the “man of the house” so I walked around in my underwear and made loud noises when I got up or down from the couch.
Anyway….
We took the big airplane to Grammy and Grampy’s. It was a lot better than that crazy car ride.
I had a good time on the plane but I was sleepy because of a bad cold. I got a cold from one of my friends at daycare. We share.
My limo!
When we got to the other airport Grammy and Grampy were there! Grampy had a sign for me like I usually have for him.
Silly Grampy!
The flight was cool but I really liked the ride they had downstairs.
The big reason we went there was because my Uncle Matt and Godmother Kat were having a ceremony thing because they finished college. I’m not sure what that is but I don’t think they have to go to preschool anymore.
We went to this really big place.
I was a good boy and sat in my seat all night.
Except for the 47 times mommy and I ran around.
It was a long night but the next day we got ready for the PARTY! I helped.
I made the egg salad (there might have been some shells. Sorry.) And I helped with the balloons.
It was so much fun.
My Uncle Dougie had to go back the next day but mommy and I stayed for a little vacation. I’ve been so busy with daycare lately it seems like I’ve had no time off. Mommy too!
SO MUCH FUN!
Grampy took us to a fun playground.
Grammy took us to the beach a lot.
Charlie came too!
I helped pack the beach wagon so I could get a ride.
The rest of the week was so much fun.
I was blowing bubbles with Uncle Matt.
And it seems like wherever Grammy is there’s sidewalk chalk.
Clean up, Clean up!
One day we had chores to do. Grampy had to dust, Uncle Matt had that vacuum thing and mommy had to mop. I helped.
I also tried to clean Grampy’s feet.
Sometimes I think he’s worse than a full dipey on a hot summer day! Hehe! Gotcha Grampy!
Grampy and Uncle Matt did there Show every morning. I might have joined them a time or two.
The little talky things are cool!
I had so much fun but at the end of the week it was time to go home. I helped Uncle Matt pack mommy’s suitcase.
Then we got back on the airplane and flew home. I felt much better this time because I gave my cold to Grammy, Aunty Kat and Uncle Matt. Sorry guys!
Mommy and I flew back home and guess who I saw at the airport????
Daddy!!! I guess he finished washing the aircraft carrier.
And ya know what? Grampy says they are all coming down to my house in a week! I guess my daycare teacher lady is going on vacation so they are all going to babysit! These vacation things are cool!
I can’t wait! Fun for days!
