Visit from Germany

Tara and her kids came for a 3 week visit from Germany.  It was the first time we got to meet her son Connor who is 3wks younger than Elias. It was SUPER GREAT and SUPER FUN to have them here.  We got a pic of Grandaddy and the grandkids.

 Olivia got to drive Logan around in Levi's jeep while at Grandaddy's house.  Love their faces.

 Grandparents and grandbabies.

 This was a shot Tara got during Olivia's birthday party at Bounce USA.  Mom going down the big slide.  Woo Hoo! Go Mom!

We celebrated Mother's Day together too.  Had a cookout at our house in the rain. Very fun. Here's the moms and kids. I love you MOM!

 My friend Heidi from high school got to stop by on her way thru town. Very nice to see her. She's the type of friend you see every few years, pick up right where you left off, and get some good laughs in. Diptop.

 Isaac and Olivia got this cool water/sand (we are using rocks) table for their birthdays. Logan got to enjoy it too. It was not put together totally yet, but they were enjoying it anyway.

 "Hey, watcha doin over there?"...Elias and Connor enjoying the outdoors together too.  It was really fun to watch them.

 Mom got my sister and I into Dollywood with some friend passes.  We took the kids. Why? I'm not sure. I think it was fun. (ha ha) The day we went was 90ish degrees with lots of people there. It was quite the ordeal with 3 little ones and 2 nursing mothers. But, the kids had a fun time riding all the rides.  The ones they could ride by themselves were the best. Thanks Grandma for helping so much! 

 Dinner at McDonalds followed by ice cream was a great treat after the long, hot day of fun.

 Olivia loved holding Connor just as much as she does Elias.

 The boy bonding.

 Will got to fly over from Germany for a couple days.  We got to see him for about 3hrs before we left on our family vacation. We managed to get a family picture. It was great to see you Will!

This is really fun!

 Super Buddies. Isaac was really excited/impressed to see my superman shirt. (I haven't worn it since before being pregnant with Elias so Isaac didn't know it existed.) We went to Bible study together with our shirts.

 He was trying to get away, but I wouldn't let him.

 Hanging out.

 I believe this was peek a boo. Elias is a big thumb sucker.

 Another pic from Tara's visit. This is story time before nap.

Can't wait till you all get to come back for another visit! Love you!
