A Weekend Surprise

We decided to head back home for the weekend to surprise Grammy and Grannie.  I think we successfully shocked both of them by showing up at their houses.  On Friday night, we arrived at my parents' house around 9:30 p.m. Burke came in the house and walked right up to Grammy.  She was very confused as to why our dog was in her lap!  This is a Saturday morning picture of her trying to help little Z get back to sleep after waking up way too early on a Saturday morning!  (I think he is starting to teethe....possibly.... and has some congestion in his nose.)  He woke up around 5 a.m. ready to start the day! 
 We then hurried over to Zack's mom's house to surprise her.  She had surgery on Wednesday, and we thought that Zander would be a perfect get well present.  Zack took a picture of us outside her house saying "I think those bushes need trimmed out front".  Grannie said to Auntie A "That is my house!"  We got to spend some time with her while she is recovering while Zack was able to do some yard work to help out.  She can't pick up things that are heavier than 5 pounds so we were able to place Lil' Z in her lap. 
 Auntie A got some squeezing time in as well!  She organized a cookout on Saturday night so we would have some of the family together to celebrate Grannie's successful surgery.  The food was delicious.... especially the sautéed mushrooms and onions for the burgers!
 Zander tested out a "jumperoo"/walker at Grammy's house and a different type of stroller at Grannie's.  I love how his feet don't even touch the ground yet!
 We always like to keep it fair.... so Zander sported a "My Grandma Rules" shirt and "My Grandpa is #1" shirt this weekend.  Here he is with Grandpa Buzz.
I have been up since 3:30 a.m. with a fussy baby that is not feeling that great.  So I will keep this post brief and hope to get a nap sometime this afternoon!  Tomorrow is the first day of school with students.... welcome to the 2013-2014 school year!
