Gramps Camp 2008 Day 2

Day 2. Grandma took everyone to the park to give Grandpa a break. He didn't wake up feeling too good. After lunch, we all headed to downtown Beaumont and to the Texas Energy Museum. The exhibits are great, but the kids (including Grandma and Grandpa) were most fascinated by the Brainteasers exhibit - a room full of puzzles. Everyone had a good time trying to assemble a cube and do other puzzles. We tried again for Gator Country, and this time the weather cooperated. It was pure Bubba, but the grandkids had a fine time. The highlight was the opportunity to hold a young alligator and a Burmese python. After mac and cheese and corn on the cob for dinner, everyone is watching a movie about a cheetah cub raised by a young boy and then released to the wild. So, it's all nature, all the time.
And to close the post, we have an all-star performance of "On Top of Spaghetti."

That is just awesome. It looked like so much fun that Chris and I wished we were grandkids. Cannot wait til' we can send Peyton with all the rest of our cousins. Chris and I decided whenever she does that we will take our own little vaca too. Loved the video. Can't tell what the t-shirts said though?

The water park is in Sulphur, La. It is about a hour from Beaumont. The cost is five dollars a person. It is nice.
