I was really excited for Hyrum to be reacquainted with his grandparents who haven't seen him in the flesh since he was two and a half months old. His great grandmother didn't remember meeting him before too well so this was a great time of getting to know one another.
While great grandma was folding towels she made a little tunnel for Hyrum to walk through. He thought that was great!
While at great grandma's house the deer visited. Hyrum thought this was the coolest thing ever!



He even got to play pat a cake and ring around the rosie with great grandma and great aunt Val.


By the end of our visit they'd bonded enough for Hyrum to give her a big wet kiss before she headed to Montana for an adventure and to meet some more great grandkids.










My dad (Papa) is retired so he was able to spend a lot of time with Hyrum and they had a great time together.

On Sunday afternoon we all went for a walk before we headed back home.
Playing with Mema one last time before we get on the plane to go back home.

Mema, who loves to shop and is always trying to talk us into moving to Michigan, bought Hyrum this outfit.

Don't be mistaken, our family only bleeds BYU blue but this serves the purpose to remind us of our visit and encourages us to come back.

But in the meantime we can't wait until Mema and Papa come out here for Halloween!

    I love that you were here in the summer. I am sad it was for a funeral. Thank you for making this huge effort.
