Grandkids’ Visit – Part 2

This and the last post are really just my way of keeping a scrapbook. This is part two of the grandkid’s visit.

Grandkids eating lunch with a view of the California State capitol in the background.

I chose the State Capitol as our destination for one of the days they were here. I had to look this up. Capitol: the building where lawmakers meet. Capital: the city that is the seat of government. So this photo shows the kids in the Capital (Sacramento) in front of the Capitol. After snacks, we wandered through the Capitol. I hadn’t realized that there is a big part under renovation. The politicians are mostly at another building right now but the old Capitol is open for visitors.

There are many room to view and museum type displays in some of them. You can wander through the building with or without a tour guide. The dome is impressive.

Back home, Kirby spent time each day with the sheep that were going to the show in Oregon.

I set up a private lesson for the kids at YogaCoreFit in Vacaville where I go for pilates workouts.

They offer aerial yoga but the kids classes are on weekends and we couldn’t make those. So Kasen and Kirby had a private class with Carol, the owner.

The kids really enjoyed this. Kirby says that when she grows up and has a horse ranch she will also have this aerial gear to use.

We visited my brother and sister-in-law in Fairfield.

During the second week of the grandkids’ visit Kasen went to stay with the other grandparents in town and visit with lots of cousins while Kirby went with Dan and me to Black Sheep Gathering in Oregon. Blog posts here.

We got back late Sunday night and took Monday to recover and continue the visit with Farm Club friends who were in Oregon with us or stayed here to take care of the place while we were gone.

On Tuesday we squeezed in a visit with Matt and Kaleena near Pollock Pines.

The cousins came to visit Tuesday evening because Kasen and Kirby were leaving on Wednesday. This is play time with Sparky.
