A GG Visit!

Yay for Thanksgiving break and the chance to be home for 5 whole days !! After a walk to the donut/coffee shop, fort building, and endless rounds of hide-n-go-seek, I'm attacking my laundry list of things to do .... and this here blog is one of them. :)

Gina came out to visit us over a month ago... we didn't know for sure when she would arrive, so we waited to tell Kyle. Rudy drove the boys for a little adventure to "watch airplanes land." Then, he drove through the arrival terminal and played pretend by asking the boys who they should pick up. Kyle went through the list and I wish I could have seen his face when his GG actually appeared!! ;)

GG got to visit our "new" place for the first time and we enjoyed having more space to play in. During the week, I especially appreciated her visit since Gavin could stay with her and I had one less person to drop off early in the morning. I was surprised by what a break that gave me, not to mention how special for Gavie to get quality time with his GG. Here are some pictures she sent from the trip.

GG took them for a wagon ride all over town!! What a story...yet what a highlight.

While playing outside, Gavie got stung by a wasp. He still talks about it, trying to milk it for all it's worth. "I got a bee-sting!" he says while pointing to the wrong hand. :)

 

Watching trains at the train station. This is a Kyle favorite we do quite often and it was special to take GG to see "our" station!

Also on the list, was a newly found treasure of a small town hidden in the hills. While at this cafe, you'd think you were somewhere other than CA. It's got such a nice change of pace and scenery.

We got to celebrate GG's birthday just a few days early.

Happy Birthday, GG!

Thanks for a nice visit!!
