Grandma Phyllis and Granddad Les

We were so excited to have Phyllis and Les come from England to spend a few days with us in October! I think I was the most excited out of everyone! It was the first time they got to meet Vika. And of course, Brian had to be sure he had his wits about him as the sarcasm and digs fly when he and Phyllis are together!

Both the kids absolutely adore Grandma and Granddad. It helps that neither of them act their age (that's Les and Phyllis). They were wonderful with the kids and seemed to have an endless amount of patience for our kids who have an endless amount of energy! They were not bothered by morning wake up visits or construction safety tape being strategically placed throughout the apartment.

Phyllis and Les are very independent and were very easy house guests! They ventured on their own to Pompeii. Vika and I took them to Montecassino and Sorento, and Kyle joined us on a day at Herculaneum. We were even able to celebrate Les's 79th birthday with him at a wonderful little Italian restaurant in our village. We really had a spectacular visit with them! Lots of laughs and smiles and generally good times!
