Andy arrived on Friday evening to visit his lonely grandparents. Oh yeah, he brought his dad with him. Andy was very impressed with the high beds and immediately climbed up and proclaimed his happiness with being in Florida.
Before we know it, he will be able to drive the golf cart. For now, Jon enjoyed zipping around.
But the high point , in Andy's opinion, was the swimming pool. They are heated to 84 degrees and we only dragged him out when he began to resemble a prune. Temperatures were perfect, in the mid 70's, with clear brilliant skies.
Andy was a bit confused with the whole house thing. Between the rental, the new house and the Pennsylvania house, he's just not sure where we live but he thought the new one was 'cool' and enjoyed hide and seek in the closets.
Jon and Paul tried out one of the many golf courses.
This is what the Younger and the Senior thought of shopping.....................................!!
We have always viewed the buffalo from a distance but Jon decided we should get up close and personal and to encourage that, we had apple slices. Well, do you know how long and disgusting the tongue is on a buffalo? I tried to gingerly extend the apple out and hoped he would gently take it but no, he slobbered and snorted and got down right pushy trying to get it. I chickened out and left it on the post for him to figure it out. Meanwhile, Andy is viewing this all from the safety of the golf cart. He wasn't impressed.
Amid many tears and sobs and pleading not to go home, we drove them back to the airport this morning. They are returning in a few weeks but time doesn't mean much to a 4 year old. The house is much too quiet.
