Ok. To be fair I had to add another picture of LisaMarie Rose. She's a cutie. She had one "B+" on her report card and the rest "A's". She always wants to be doing something otherwise she's bored. She enjoyed playing checkers with her PopPop.

We have Skype and our son has Skype so I could do a video call with one grandson. However, I can't keep it straight as to what weekend my son has him and what weekend his ex-wife has him....and Matthew isn't a talker.
The two grandkids on here live in Tennessee; but my daughter does NOT have Skype. :( So that makes it impossible. In fact, since HER computer died she doesn't even have a computer. Her hubby has one that he uses in his "man cave". She uses it in times of emergency...like when she wants "mom" to send her a recipe via email. LOL. So right now that doesn't work for me and my grands! :(

Some day I will be a grandparent. You have the best of both worlds. No mess to clean up and all your visits extra special! Do you get a chance to Skype with them? That's what my girlfriend does since her grands live in other countries. Her daughters are missionaries to Africa and South America, she uses Skype all the time to talk with them.

Donna,
It was very interesting. I'd love to go again and spend more time in the Viking store.
Thanks for the compliment on the grandkids. I think they're cute; but then I should as I'm the grandmother. LOL.... They call me MiMi and my hubby...PopPop. Wish they lived closer so we could spoil them more. 11/15/13

What a cute apron! This trip must have brought you good memories! How fun to get to see the inner areas that make up just a pinch!

You have a great looking family too! Your grand kids are adorable!
