Kathie's visit

Kathie came to visit, and she and Grandpa went up to Rexburg to watch Annie, Jenna, and Collin while Matt and Rachel went on vacation down South.

Kathie and Amanda bringing flowers from Grandpa's garden down to Grandma's grave.

With Matt and Rachel gone, Kathie and Grandpa came up with a system to keep the kiddos motivated to get along and do their chores. Each started the week with 20 quarters (the price of admission to a magical place called Blast Off). For each no-no, they lost a quarter, and for each good deed they earned one back. Happily, they still arrived at 20 quarters by the end of the week. Blast Off was a blast!
Poor Jenna was buried a little too well and got jumped on. Don't worry, that frown was quickly turned upside down.
