Max's Third and Fourth Days with Nana and BigE

Early Saturday morning Max asks for a few stories. Nana and BigE look a little bleak having been awakened in the night by severe thunderstorms moving through the area. Max never stirred during the storms and was alert and ready for his third big day in Tyler.


Nana also reads a few books to Max before breakfast.


BigE and Max spend a fun lunch time together while Nana is gone to church meetings. BigE fixed pizza for lunch. Max shows BigE his "Let me think about that a minute" pose when asked what he wants for dessert.


It rained hard almost the entire day. Nana, BigE and Max brave the slick Tyler streets to visit Grandma Roma.

Max is eager to say "Bye Bye" and give Grandma Roma a big hug and a kiss.


Due to the stormy weather outside, Max finds plenty of indoor activities to make the day enjoyable. BigE and Max sing their favorite Primary songs together at the piano. Singing was fun . . .


But playing basketball was the BEST!!!


Nana fixes a hearty dinner: beef tips, broccoli, pear halves, potatoes and gravy. Max is impressed!


And after a fun time in the bathtub . . .


. . . BigE helps a very tired young man brush his teeth. Nana reads Max a peaceful story before bedtime.


It's Sunday! A new day - and the bad storms are gone!!! Sunday morning turns out to be as bright and sunny as Max's personality. The quiet morning is filled with stories, games and all sorts of Sunday fun for Max with Nana. BigE is gone to his early church meetings. Max has a fun pillow fight with Nana.


There's nothing quite like Nana's tickles to show off those beautiful pearly whites!


After church and after a quick visit to see Grandma Roma, Nana fixes food for a "much anticipated" reunion later that evening for Max with his Mommy and Daddy.


Max steps up to get a better look while Nana mixes up the chicken salad for the sandwiches.
"Hurry up, Nana! I can hardly wait to see Mommy and Daddy!!!"


Reunited with his parents, holding the essential blankets and strapped safely in his seat - - Max gives Nana and BigE one last kiss goodbye.

"Thanks Nana and BigE for the BEST weekend ever. Let's do this again sometime."
