The goodbye group hug!  Grandson Colin had to depart today and two years ago, the gang of five hugged him in the same manner......so I put him in the same spot in the kitchen and then the little kids gave him the goodbye group hug.   Colin was even wearing the same shirt!  Sweet.....
The extra is Casey (youngest grandchild) who wanted to finally have a "polar bear bath".......Many of you may not have ever had the pleasure of the polar bear bath, so I'll explain.  At the end of a normal bath, lots of ICE is dropped into the bath, just to watch it melt, pick it up, play with it as long as it lasts......this game was invented several years ago when I was babysitting three of the grandchildren while their parents went on a holiday without them for their anniversary and just to be funny, I put a huge bowl of ice cubes in the children's bath water.......so there you go.
