Grandma's Visit

Even though my dad wasn't able to make the trip to visit us last week, we still managed to have a bit of fun. There was lots of snuggling, tea parties, giggling, a trip to see Sesame Street Live and even a birthday party!

Next...we're headed north. We depart for Huron tomorrow afternoon to spend Thanksgiving with Nick's side of the family. Rumor is that Grandma and Grandpa Bettcher are hosting 45 for Thanksgiving! Should be fun!!

This is for you, Dad...

My mom gets to visit us this week...she arrives tomorrow!!! ...and my dad was supposed to come. Due to a recent toe surgery and orders from his doctor, he will not be joining her on this trip. As much as I'd love to tell him to, "just come anyway." I am a stickler for following doctor's orders!

Dad, since you won't be able to be here with us, here's some live action of what goes on at our house:

Stella is opening a Halloween card from her Grandma Bettcher and wanted to read it to me...you might need to turn the volume up a bit for this one:

Translation: "Dear Lord, Thank you for today. Thank you for Mommy, Daddy, Stella & Charlie. Thank you for this dinner. Pray in Jesus name, Amen."

(please excuse the bathrobe!) ;) --oh, and we're having breakfast even though she's thankful for her dinner. ha ha ha

They're getting big fast and I get to see them everyday. How does this happen!?
