We were up and out of the hotel early to go visit Peter's grandparents, Ralph & Betty. It was great to see them. I think we've been to Irvine five times since Conleigh was born. They live in a great community and Ralph has been greeting walkers around the lake weekday mornings for years. He and his friends meet at "the bench," and say hello to many a'walker.
I've heard about the bench for a long time, but I've never been to 'the bench.' This trip we went to 'the bench.' The weather wasn't great, so sadly his friends didn't come that day, but he still greeted people he recognized and those he didn't.
We all went out to lunch, and then we spent a little time at their house. There is a playground right outside their door. Times sure have changed because we just let the kids go out there by themselves this time. No parental oversight.
Grandma had made 'the birthday cake.' The famous Hardin birthday cake!
