But especially when you're sharing it with two awesome grandsons!
My husband and I decided several years ago that each grandchild could pick a trip that they wanted to take with KK and PopPop ( that's us ). Now - - - they couldn't just pick ANY place! We had our boundaries - no African Safaris or Around the World in 80 days type of trips. So we gave them hints, options, etc, and asked some leading questions about what kinds of things they would like to do or see. Their trip comes up sometime around the year they turn 13. We're now wondering why we picked that age - sometimes I think 11 or 12 would be easier on us - if you know what I mean!
Chase and Trevor turned 13 in the last few months so we thought summer 2011 would be "Their" time. Since they are first cousins and only 6 months apart we asked them if they wanted to do a trip together. They both jumped at the chance to not be "alone" with The Grandparents! It was definitely a great decision! We all had a ball!
