Sunday afternoon visit with Grandma Johnson

I can't believe how lucky I am to live in the same town as one of my Grandma's.  She is one amazing lady and we love when we get some time to visit with her!  The kids were all in the mood to pose for a picture with Grandma and sweet Grandma didn't mind holding Jordyn's doll, Kelsee, that pretty much goes everywhere we go. Grandma treated her just like one of her great grandchildren! :):)

Kami, Kelsee:), Grandma, and Cinderella baby doll! 
The kids playing with Grandma's lego collection!  As soon as we arrive and give grandma a squeeze, the kids are off to Grandma's toy closet to break out her lego sets.  Thankfully, she's a good sport about the lego mess spread everywhere until we're ready to leave.  
Regan and Grandma J.

These are one of my kids most favorite random toys that Grandma has hung on to over the years. I remember a few years back at Halloween when we took the kids over to Grandma's to trick-or-treat and she opened the door wearing these things.  The kids LOVED it and it's stuck with them through the years!   
Morgan and Grandma J. 
Porter with Grandma J.--I love Grandma's expression in this picture.  She loves her Great Grandchildren and they know it! 
Jordyn posing with Kelsee--She adores this doll! 
Kaleb and Grandma! 
Me and Grandma!   
One of the kids snapped this picture of Grandpa J. that sits on Gram's coffee table.  Oh how I miss my Grandpa and I get teary whenever I think of him and the sweet man he was.  When my grandma still lived in her Three Fountains Condo, she had this picture sitting on an end table in the living room next to a container of sticky notes.  Everytime we visited, one of the kids would draw a sweet picture or a note to Grandpa and stick it right on this picture.  Grandma would almost always leave it there until the next time we came.  I'm thankful that atleast Regan and Morgan have a few memories of their Great Grandpa because he was something special! 

Crazy Kami!

That's so great that your kids like to visit a great grandma. I can tell she is a great one because of all the fun toys at her place. She is a very pretty lady, too.
PS You should totally come up here whenever, a 2 hour notice is long enough for me! Rylee still talks about playing with your girls, I just need to stop over there one of these times I'm in IF. We need to hang out, and for Seth's sake it would be fun to do it when DJ is home. (if that ever happens:)
