Gram and Poppy came for a visit this weekend. The kids were super excited...Claire was up before 6:30am the day of their arrival eagerly awaiting the ring of the door bell (this from my baby who sleeps in any chance she gets!). The crew stayed busy the whole time playing trains, Barbie's, marble run and Chutes and Ladders. We also were able to play outside, and Claire and Landon showed off their new skills of bike and scooter riding. Poppy helped fill the birdfeeder (he was the inspiration to get one) and played in the sandbox. Gram did some ball playing and High School Musical dance mat.
Saturday night, Gram and Poppy let Geoff and I go out on a "date", and took the kids to Doe's Eat Place (a steak joint with HUGE portions, the kids love it). I'm not sure who got the better deal on steak, because Geoff and I also had some at a Ruth's Chris Steak House. It was a lovely evening for us to catch up and relax. Gram and Poppy also had a good time entertaining the kids while waiting for their food, or maybe the kids were entertaining them...
THANKS GRAM AND POPPY FOR A LOVELY EVENING!!!
There were teary good byes and attempted stowaways, but overall the weekend was lots of fun. Here are some other tidbits...
*"I miss you!" - Landon to Gram and Poppy while playing, it was darling.
*"We haven't played enough" - Claire to Gram when she realized they were leaving today.
*"I go Gram and Poppy's house" - Landon as they were leaving, and then after they left, and while he was taking his nap, and after he woke up, well...you get the picture!
*"I'm going on a date" - Landon, with Geoff's dress shoes on after dinner.
