Apple Orchard

While visiting Grandpa Johnson, he took us to an Apple Orchard.

Great Grandpa Johnson and Hayden

on the hunt for some good apples.

Hayden found some.

"Let me see if they're good mom. Yep! Pretty TASTY"

"Let's get some more!"

"I need another TASTE. You know, just in case. Plus I'm working so hard."

"You can never have too many apples."

"Man, these are SO GOOD! I just can't get enough!"

Hayden had such a blast picking apples with Great Grandpa Johnson. The trick was to show him the apples on the tree; cause he kept putting apples from the ground into our basket, or even worse...into his mouth!

Hayden does a little dance (we call it the "Chocolate Dance") whenever he eats chocolate. Well on the ride home from the Apple Orchard, Hayden did something like his "Chocolate Dance" except it's some "Hayden Apple Smiles":

"Apples make me so happy!"

"BALL Bug"

During our Patio Make-Over, Hayden discovered "Ball Bugs".

(Also known as a Roly-Poly, Pill Bug, or

Armadillidium vulgare,

but the best/cutest name is "BALL Bug".)

(Please don't judge my video-recording skills.)

Thank you Great Grandpa Johnson for coming and helping my little patio!

Here are some Before and After picts:

He also spruced-up my front yard:

Now Hayden can enjoy his Picnic Table

that Grandpa Warren made him:

"Thank you Grandpa!"

WOW! What a Great, Exciting, Tiring, Learning-Full Day.

Great G-pa Johnson's Swing

We recently visited Great Grandpa Johnson.

While we were there Grandpa wanted to build Hayden a swing (from scratch). Well I suggested Wal-Mart.

The only swing they had was PINK, but still much, much better/safer.

Hayden LOVED It:

(We tested it's strength, before letting Hayden in, by letting Great 290 lbs. Grandpa hang on it!) :)

Thank you Great Grandpa Johnson, it was very thoughtful! :)
