Baby-Sitting Devin and Hailey

The Five Musketeers is what Hailey calls this group.
We had not seen Devin and Hailey for two months.  They were in Mississippi for the summer with Aunt Bonita and her family.   The spent last night and today (Tuesday) while Uncle Kevin worked the election board for the run-offs and Bonita went to Claremore to the Rogers State College.
I had to work Monday evening so Pops took the two kids to Steak and Shake and then over to the Scharpf's back yard for a 30-minute swim before bed time.
Even though they had not seen each other, they had talked on the phone -- still it was good for the quick before bed time tiny visit.
Can anyone guess who behunkus this is popping up out of the water?
And here is an alien from outer space.  Which planet is this thing from?
Hailey and the girls are having a grand time.
Cousins:  Lily, Hailey and Elijah in the background.
They they said Good-night and off to Bed.
I got home last night just in time to kiss them good night before bed.  But Hailey's request was hot chocolate in the hot tub in the morning.  So of course we had to find some hot chocolate for them.  It was really hot and had peppermint candy in it.  Sugar up the grandkids and send them home?
Too hot to drink.....no it is "just right."
The Happy Threesome.
 
And then I am off to work again on Tuesday morning.
After breakfast of blueberry pancakes on the deck, it started to rain. Devin had to do his school work.  Here he is working on Pre-Algebra.


Hailey has not started school yet, so she drew pictures, played with legos and played with Babe.  Here is Hailey displaying her Steak and Shake memories.
And playing with the 3 1/2 pound wonderwoman:  Babe!
