Grandpa and Grandma are here!!!

So, my parents came for the weekend. It was so nice to see them and get to show them around our new house. They arrived on Wednesday night and no sooner did one of my children (won't name any names.....) asked if we could go to build a bear.....So, Grandma being the sucker that she is - of course said yes....So, here is our day on Thursday....a wonderfully fun day....
Here we are outside the workshop....
After they picked out their "bear" (Chloe picked a bunny, and Keira a kitten)
Stuffing their bear, bunny, and kitty
giving love to the heart...
putting the heart in the bunny, bear, and kitty
giving them a bath, cuz you know right after anyone is born, they immediately need a bath.
getting dressed
new born build a bears.....
naming them....
all ready to go in their new homes....which are always fun to have laying around the house :)
Taking them to the playground at the mall...

Eating lunch at the mall
After lunch, we headed to Focus on the Family. Here we are getting on the elevator...
Posing with the infamous Dr. Whitaker...

A-Bend-A-Go slide that the two older kids LOVE

and of course, getting ice cream at Whit's End....


after dinner we took a drive up the mountain behind our house, here is some of the scenery....
It was getting dark, but this rock just stands up in the middle of the trails and it looks weird, but very cool..
That was day one....stay tuned for more adventures from today!!!
