A relaxing afternoon

Sunday afternoon spent at Grandpa and Jaja's house, that is! Starting it off with lunch on the deck (delicious chicken fajitas and black beans & rice. Even Timo enjoyed the beans!).

Gemma was so excited to be around 1406 for the afternoon that she took a very short nap and then awoke yelling, "Jaja! Jaja!" So, on to a coloring session with Grandpa it was.

Later in the afternoon we went down to Oval Park to check out the "Neighborhood Olympics" (Watts Hillandale versus Trinity Park neighborhoods) and their Kid's Decathlon. We were a little Gemma joined up for a couple of events: discus (e.g. frisbee), javelin (e.g. bamboo 'spear'), shot put (e.g. small ball), and a running race.

Gemma was in the 'under 5' category, and didn't quite understand how to stand in line and how to start racing off around the track with everyone. But she was very brave and quite focused, and got lots of applause at the finish!

Meanwhile, Timo sat at Grandpa's feet and enjoyed a few bites of grass. (Check out those lovely chubby arms!)
