ACTIVE TIME

When it is not quiet time it is full on active time with two little boys and one big boy. Bernie and I took the boys to the park not only for swinging, climbing and sliding but for riding and running too.
 Up the hill, Banjo in the car and Fox on is bike.

 Then down hill weee
Concentrating and travelling quite fast.

Speed demon.

Then it was playing chasings with Papa.

"Caught you Papa"

"Now where have they gone!"

"There they are!"

A nice moment with Papa.

"C'mon boys give me a nice photo together."

"Lets have a photo together."
" No way!" says Banjo, "I'm off."

"Okay then just Fox and me"

"Let's try again , Grandma and her grandsons."
"No I want Papa." says Banjo 

Oh well thats how it is trying to photograph kids.

Only one day left to have fun with these two dynamos. I leave for Australia tomorrow night.

  3. Both boys are adorable. I'll bet Banjo will miss his Grandma when she's gone home. Of course, Fox is going to miss you as well.

  6. The best photos I have of my grandkids when they were little were the ones I took without them realising it. Ask them to pose for a photo and its no go. Looks like you will be coming home for a rest. Looks pretty full on Diane.

  7. The weather looks picture perfect in LA. The grandchildren look like they had lots of fun with grandma and papa. I'm sure you will all miss one another once you are on your way back to Australia.

  24. Aren't the balance bikes the best? Fox really has mastered riding his.

    I know how hard it is to corral two little boys for photos, Diane. I can never get my two grandsons to look and smile at the camera at the same time. They are too squirmy..lol

    Hope you had a good trip home!

  26. All pictures are so cute ! I see that Fox also has a wooden bike ! I thought it was a typical Dutch thing as they are specialists in fancy bikes. Toby has almost the same !
