This is Hansa Haus. It's a cabin up in the Huntsville area that is owned by my oldest daughters in -laws. It is so peaceful up there. The Cabin sits next to a bubbling creek and the birds sing all day. We spent the day there on Saturday and just chilled. Literally. It was a little cool for my blood, but I am not complaining! There was no TV, no internet, and my phone had no reception. I loved it! Adam is all boy, he loves anything sports so we "played" badminton. I threw the birdie, he smacked it and I chased it and then I threw the birdie....you get my drift :o. Anyone that he could sweet talk got to play the same game and he is a good sweet-talker!

Oh boy! Wouldn't it be funny if Uncle Shane fell into the creek and got all wet!? I'd better keep my hands in my pockets so I don't get blamed for that one. Gramma! Don't tell mom you caught me eating again!

Hey Gramma!! Wanna play badminton with me? I'll serve. Wes just started walking a week ago and now we can't hold him back! His favorite place to be? Outside, of course.

Sisters, sisters who love sisters...oh wait there's another one! I wonder where she is? Oh, there she is

Tripping the light fantastic inside with the girls. It's kind of a tradition in Brenda's family to do skits and entertain who ever is willing to be entertained. I think this was Mamma Mia.

This is Erica and her skit. The puppet in her left hand is a cat and the puppet in her right hand is a dog. Her skit went like this: This is a cat.... This is a dog.... This is the dog chasing the cat! She "chased" the cat around her body with the dog. It was pretty clever if you ask me :)

Kamber is such a ham. She loves to pose for the camera. Grandma S. is the instigator. She loves to play and perform with the kids. She's just a kid at heart herself. I think she'd make a great grade school teacher! Oh, that's right she is a teacher.

The judges. Ashley and Hailee are a lot tougher than they look. You had to get 15 points to move on to the next round. They liked the low numbers, but luckily we got to total the two together to get the final score so everyone made it to the next round including...

presto! chango! he's escaped from his handcuffs! The magician of the day. The all knowing Evan!
And finally the gorgeous fivesome. Olivia, Kamber, Hailee, Erica and Ashley. Wait! Kamber what is hanging off your lips!? You make your mother so proud. HAHAHA. I'm not sure who the recipient is of Ericas kiss...probably me :) I have the best grandkids in the whole wide world!
