Friday afternoon we all headed up to Williamsburg to help go through stuff and pack. The boys were a great help! Ian took care of the lawn and Gavin tried to follow. They helped bring boxes to the garage and even played the piano for their Grammie for entertainment! Saturday we spent the day throwing stuff out and packing. We made a few trips to the dump, too. Sunday we went to church and then off to the Gazebo for breakfast. It was nice to get the royal treatment at the Gazebo! We saw over 10 people sitting outside waiting for tables, but the AYD clan walked in. The owner's son saw us and quickly got a table together and off we went. How great is that?! Ian has taken a liking to blueberry pancakes and Gavin is quite content to regular ones. We went back to the house to do more packing and sorting. We were able to get on the road by 4:30pm, so that was good.
My grandparents look great (for those of you wondering)! Mimi is quilting up a storm and even wants to make pillows to match the new living room! She continues to read and read and read and write out cards. She has come a long way. She is so close to getting rid of the walker, too. Pop-pop keeps close to his walking stick and he looks great, too. He and Cailean worked hard this weekend going through the garage and feeding the birds with the boys!
It was hard to leave Ford's Colony for the last time, but as Pop-pop says, "We're closing one chapter and on to a new chapter." So, I'm glad he has that attitude!
Eight days and counting until they move down here...
