New Grandson in Chico



We had a wonderful trip to Chico this week. We left King City on Tuesday after school arriving in Chico around 10:30 p.m. Chico is dressed up for fall, the trees look lovely and the air is crisp. We got to spend all day with the Grahams, whether they wanted to or not. Some great time with the new and adorable Rocky. He is cute and cuddly and unbelievably well behaved for being one week old!! He does have a mean frown though, but not all the time, just when he is trying to figure out who you are. After some nice long visit with Rocky and Zane (grandpa had a ball playing with Zane and his rock army men). Maybe his is so interested in rocks is because he is waiting for Rocky to get old enough to play? Ian, Zane and Grandpa and Grandma decided to get out and go bowling. What a ball that was, we got the bumpers put up and it is a good thing we did cause SOME people used them a lot (grandpa), it was like he invented a new way to bowl, called rickoshay bowling. He did pretty good at it but couldn't catch Ian who bowled in the traditional way. I did good so I was happy. We went to lunch and then back to checkout Rocky and Heather. Thursday Zane had to go to school, bummer, Rocky had to go to the doctors, so g and g hung out in Chico until lunch, when school was out we went and got Zane and then he had to go get his flu shot which he didn't know about so he was a little sad but when it came time for the shot he was fine and seemed to forget all about it by the time we got home. Then off to gymnastics and wow Zane really does know how to jump, tumble and swing. That was fun fun fun, then we went to dinner with everyone, Rocky was so good slept the whole time. The grahams have their cute apartment all homey and settled in. Our trip home was long but was fun cause we brought Robert down to King City to work on his movie script which he hopes will get he and Rod into the Sundance script writing workshop which they were ASKED to apply for. Looking forward to Thanksgiving so we can see ALL our brilliant grandkids.
