Audrey and Henry are on spring break so they are coming to Lynchburg for a week with Grandma and Grandpa. Grandma met Katie in Danville this afternoon and the crew arrived in the Burg by 4:30 p.m.
Monday
We went to the Safari Park in Natural Bridge and the animals still like to stick their heads in the car for a treat!
Henry liked to feed the animals and he was strong enough this year to hold the bucket!
Audrey was quite thrilled to see kangaroos, even a baby one!
The park seems to be doing well and they have added several new exhibits since I was there with Henry 4 years ago. Did you ever think you could ride a turtle Audrey?
On the way home we stopped and walked on the Appalachian Trail Foot Bridge across the James River.
Tuesday
It was a cool and cloudy day. In the morning Grandma and Audrey ran errands and stopped by Randolph College to see folks in the Health Center. Grandpa and Henry went grocery shopping. In the afternoon, we went to see Paddington 2 and everyone loved that movie. Spring arrived today!
Wednesday
It is spring....and it is snowing in Lynchburg!
The kids did not have snow shoes so we spent the day inside playing games and watching movies!
Thursday
In the morning we went over to see the Clarks and their Easter decorations; and the kids got an Easter package!
In the afternoon, Audrey and Grandma went to All Fired Up. Audrey chose a cupcake jewelry box to paint! Grandma painted a puppy for Henry.
Meanwhile, Henry and Grandpa went to Rise Up, a climbing gym with 40 foot walls! After an hour or so, Henry got his climbing moves down and went up one of the routes to the top.
After several more complete climbs, he saw there were signs on the routes with names on them. The guide told him he could get his name on one route if he could climb straight up without resting. Well, he did and his name is now on the wall!
Friday
We got up really early (6 a.m.) so Audrey and Grandma could ride the train to Charlottesville where Henry and I will pick them up.
I believe they had a great ride!
We stopped at Wegmans on the way home and arrived by lunch. After lunch we packed up and headed to Mebane to drop the kids off at their Daddy's house! Grandma and Grandpa had a really fun week with you two. Love you much!!
