Off to Philadelphia for some sightseeing!!

On Saturday morning we went to Ben's T-Ball game. Ben was great...he hit a good one and flew to 1st. base...(they only let them take one base). After the game we packed up the kids and went off to Philadelphia to see some sights. We had to leave Jason in New Jersey attending pre-stake conference meetings all day. He was called to be a High Councilor awhile ago so he had to attend about 3 0r 4 meetings on Saturday.

Here is Cailin ready for the adventure!

Ben looks less excited to be back in the car again! And Sammie...well Sammie is up for anything! Here we are in Philadelphia ready to see all there is to see! Ben is ready! We got to see the Betsy Ross house this time in Philadelphia...it wasn't as impressive as I thought it would be. They didn't let us go into very much of it. But is was historic that's for sure. It was fun to be in such an old building. The people were much smaller in those days I think! Everything is so small. Here we are in front of the Betsy Ross house. Here we are walking down the first neighborhood ever in Philadelphia where people still live today. The street was very small and narrow and the houses were tall and skinny. They were so cute though.On Sunday we got to go to Stake Conference with Stacy and the kids. Jason had to go to a Spanish Branch. The conference was a video broadcast. It was a very good conference. The kids were good even if they did turn the lights off so they couldn't see their coloring books and toys. Cailin got tired and tried to get comfy and couldn't...she went over to Grandpa and put her arms out to him and said "night night". Grandpa picked her up and she fell fast asleep...Grandpa said it was one of the best things ever!

On Monday we did some hanging out and shopping at Ikea and Home Depo. Grandpa got the supplies to take down a half wall in Stacy and Jason's kitchen that they wanted down. After getting back Grandpa completed the work and we were all impressed at how large and nice the kitchen looked without the wall.

This picture of Cailin was so cute... I couldn't resist showing this! Here is Ben playing Wee-fit...( I don't think I spelled that right!) So after a lot of fun with Stacy and Jason, Ben, Sammie and Cailin we had to get on the plane on Tuesday morning and head for home. We had a lot of fun and feel so blessed to be able to spend time with our children and grandchildren...Thank you Southwest for your super special flights! We were actually able to fly to Philadelphia for less than we usually pay to go to Utah. Off we go!! Alright just a couple more cute pictures!
