Happy Birthday, Granny!

Robert's mom (Grandmommy) was in town for the weekend and we all went out to Uncle Jim's farm on Friday (the 4th) to celebrate Granny (Robert's grandma, Adeline's great-grandma)'s 82nd birthday (which was actually on the 5th).  We had such a great time.  Robert's cousin Lance and his little boy Logan were in town from Alaska as well as his Aunt Kay's sister and brother in-law.  Logan is only about 2 months older than Addie, so they had a great time together.  

We got to see a lot of animals, which honestly Adeline was not too thrilled about.  She kept telling us "no... no... no" as we got closer and closer.  But the real trauma happened when Robert caught a grasshopper and showed Adeline.  It was the start of a phobia of  all bugs.  Later in the day we saw a teeny spider in the house and Adeline freaked out about it.  "Spida, spida!" (crying... pointing).  Then Robert to the rescue to rid us of the spider.  About a minute later she spotted a black speck on her chair (part of the wood grain) and she was convinced it was a spider.  She was really upset when we wouldn't (couldn't) get rid of it.  I know you aren't supposed to laugh at your child when they are crying, but it was quite hilarious.

I didn't get many pictures, but I did get a few as we celebrated Granny's birthday.
