Sandy Valley Days 6 & 7

We had a couple days with Grandma before heading home after the reunion.
We went bowling.

Kenzie

Coleman

Jack

Jordan



Kenzie had a higher score than Doug (in the first round:)) and was pretty excited so we took a picture.

Jordan bowled his first strike without bumpers! This was taken right after.

I spent some time looking through the photo albums. I found some cute pictures of Doug as a little boy. (At least I'm pretty sure they are Doug :))

Doug

There were a couple mice (or maybe a mouse and a rat, the second one was huge!) running through grandma's house at night since her cat, Spot, died.  They would come out at night and snack on whatever they could find in the kitchen so we had to put the food in cupboards, the oven, and the dishwasher. Doug caught the little mouse in a mousetrap one of the first couple nights, but the big mouse-rat was still there. Then on the last day he came out during the day and ran into the kitchen, then ran behind the oven when Doug came to get him. He then ran behind the cupboard and into a tiny hole under the cupboard. We could get to him unless we tore apart the cupboard. So Doug left a sticky trap in front of the only way out from behind the cupboard and left it there. This was on out last day and we had to leave to catch out flight. The mouse-rat got stuck there I think that night and poor grandma had to take care of it the next day. She has a new cat now, and so I think she doesn't have any more mice problems in her house!

We had such a fun vacation and can't wait until we can go back again!
