To Grandma's House We Go!


After driving clear across the country and getting somewhat moved in we headed back to Kansas and took Michael to the airport, sad day :( and then spent a nice relaxing week at Grandma Hyson's house. She lives in the middle of nowhere....and I love it! It really feels like I go back in time and time slows down there. On our way we stopped at Uncle Bobby's house. We got to see his remote control cars and matchbox car collection....the picture I have is just a very tiny portion of his collection! He has soooooooooooooooo many!!Then we were off to Grandma's! A wonderful week filled with quick scrabble, swimming, long dusty dirt roads, looking through piles of neat old family pictures, good food, knick knacks, crossword puzzles, sitting out under the stars listening to all the locust and catching lightning bugs, rumikub, the chicken shack, a flat tire, rhubarb cobbler, listening to old stories, thunder storms, frogs, lizards, turtles, and lots of creepy crawly things, watching huge spiders spin huge webs.....
The world's most delicious chicken....

This Spider would spin a huge web from the tree branches to the ground, just to cut it down before morning and start all over again the next night.....This is Tina....isn't she sweet......


This is the house grandma grew up in, just a few miles from where she lives now And this is the house grandpa grew up in not too far from Grandma's, such beautiful houses.....
