It all began with Grandma flying in on November 3rd. The girls could hardly wait as we drove up to the airport. Nothing but screams as she walked up to the car because everything is much more fun when your Grandma is there (they have a knack for thinking outside the box), even being sick which the girls were for the first week of her time with us. Being sick Grandma decided we should have Popcorn for breakfast and watch a movie one morning. Naptime was more fun in a castle! They even got to play with beads to make a tiarra and the barbies got some new outfits to dress up in. There is LOTS of Dancing-especially since Grandma brought Barbie's Nutcracker and Leg warmers and the girls found a new love for Ballet Dancing! The piano found its way out from under the dust and it can still play music! Since we were home sick on Sunday we went out for a walk and found some beautiful & huge leaves. Getting ready for Grandpa the girls helped Grandma make a few pies.
Our grandpa flew in on Tuesday night, the 10th and Tate found he loves him almost as much as his Dad. Must be a boy thing. Actually Tate is an early riser like his Grandpa or so I thought. They would spend their mornings together, Tate falling back asleep in the care of his Grandpa Harris' arms. Then Grandpa played and roughed up the kids as much as he could, the Kids couldn't get enough of it! Tyler often taunted her Grandpa with, "Grandpa, can't catch me" which would have her laughing and running with him right behind her.
McKenna still had school but looked forward to her Grandparents being there to pick her up at the bus stop.
We also got to go visit Sandy and Stu and see their lil farm of animals which the kids loved! Horses, bunnies, dogs....(There's a seperate entry it was so much fun)
Knowing we were going to be in Washington for the holidays this year we had an early Christmas so that Grandma & Grandpa could see the kids open their presents. They also got matching Jammies which were fun. The girls LOVE pajamas almost as much as new toys. Tate was pretty funny climbing on top of his present to attack his favorite part, the paper! The girls loved their new homes for their toy pets and princesses!
It was a very fun couple of weeks for us, we're so glad our Grandma & Grandpa Harris were able to get away and spend some time with us. Thank you for coming!!!
