F-A-M-I-L-Y

Last week we had the pleasure of having Grandma and Grandpa come out to visit and stay with us for a week. I can't even begin to say how great it was to see them and spend time with them and watch them spend time with the kids. The kids had a blast with them. They were so excited about them coming to visit. This was Conner's second time seeing Grandma and Grandpa and I was so happy for them to get to see more of his lively and loving personality and for him to get to bond with them even more. There really is nothing that compares to family and the relationships and love we share with each other.

Grandma scored big point with the Con by pushing him around the backyard on the trike. He is always trying to lull someone into doing this for him and of course his Grandma was more than willing to do it all day :)

Kellen made sure to introduce them to each and every one of his babies.

During the visit Kellen's new bike we had ordered came in. Seeing him on the trike was just starting to become painful...he is so tall for his age he was just starting to look ridiculous cruising around on the thing. He was definitely ready for something bigger. This bike is awesome and Kellen is already doing really good on it!

Makenna was thrilled to be able to show off her skills on the monkey bars to Grandma....a lot of time and blisters have gone into developing such a talent.

Such a goon!

I swear this boy gets more and more handsome every day

I think Conner almost gave Grandma a heart attack as he climbed on, in and over every piece of equipment at the park. Doesn't matter if it was intended for 6-10 year olds....Conner is right there ready to take it on! He is so fearless. I must be getting used to his craziness because it doesn't phase me the way it used to, but I get a good laugh seeing other people respond to him.

Good thing he is willing to wear a helmet....he needs one with all the stunts he pulls off.
