Surprise, Grandma!

Will and I drove to Covington for a surprise visit this weekend.  I asked Will if he wanted to go as a special surprise for Grandma.  I told him we could not let her know we were coming and yell "Surprise!" when we went in the door at her house.  He got excited about the idea and added another twist and suggested "You can go in and I'll stay in the car and grandma will think you left her boy at home and then she'll be surprised again when she sees me in the car!"  So that was the plan the whole trip until the very end.  As we got off the exit to Covington I asked if he was still going to stay in the car but he said no.  Sure enough when we got to mom's house he got out and ran in as fast as he could.  He ran right past mom without even seeing her, spotted Kristen on the way by and yelled "Hi Krissy - I gotta poop!!" and ran promptly to the bathroom!  We all died laughing, needless to say!  I was just sorry he didn't get to carry out his first plan!

We had a fun but busy visit since we had to go to Roanoke and also went for a hike and picnic at Roaring Run.  Kristen also took Will hiking to the fire tower.  I was so proud of myself for remembering my camera when we went to Roaring Run, but my battery was exhausted!  I tried to take one quick picture but I hurried too much and it was blurry!  Oh well, I guess that's a good excuse to go back soon!
