Adventure of Grandson Sammy's Visit With The Grandparents

Sammy has stopped by to visit his grandparents, Jim and Maggie, for a couple of weeks or until we run out of entertainment. He is six years old and going to be in the first grade. He just arrived on June 24th. His sixteen year old brother Cody just went on an adventure (as Sammy calls it) to Germany for one year to be a foreign exchange student. Sammy's family had an exchange student from Germany for a year whose name is Nico. He just went home a few days ago and Cody went to live with Nico's family. So, Sammy said he needed an adventure. too. We started the day with lunch in the restaurant and then golf at one of the local golf courses. What a great age to learn to play golf.

Saturday, June 28th Today, Sammy enjoyed a BBQ with family and friends. He loves to do the cooking and, also, took some photography for everyone to enjoy. The photos are of him and his mother, Cyndi, the table setting with a view, and of a beautiful sunset.

I recently took Sammy to a very popular hamburger restaurant.  When we drove into the parking lot, he said, "I love the smell of grease!"   The things little kids say can be so funny.  We went inside the restaurant and while standing in line with his hands in his pockets, he gives the place a once over and says, "This place is a money maker."    

 

 

Monday, June 30th It was swim day at the GrapeSeed Spa pool...what fun! One of the pictures is with friends Sammy met from Idylwild, California, who are staying in the villas and enjoying the pool after attending a wedding in wine country. Sammy's Mom and he posed for a quick pic. We all had lunch at the pool and a great time.

 

 

Saturday, July 5th Today was lunch with the family and Mom and Dad at the Vineyard Rose Restaurant on the verranda. What fun! The weather was so hot the misters were turned on to keep us cool. Then it was off to the pool at the GrapeSeed Spa.

 

 

Sunday, July 6th Disneyland!!! Yeah! Finally, Sammy got to go to Disneyland. We thought it would be very busy because of the July 4th weekend. Guess what? Not many people there. It only took 5-10 minutes to get on the rides. The only ride that was crowded was the new Toy Story ride which took 45 mintes to get on. That was Sammy's favorite...and Grandma's, too. It was a beautiful day.
