Partying with Grandma and Grandpa Lindseth

We had such a fantastic time with Grandma and Grandpa Lindseth! The kiddos are seriously going through withdrawl now that they're gone! And, to be honest, I'm going through withdrawl as well now that my two extra sets of baby-holding hands are gone too! During their time here, the "big kids" got to do so many activities. They also got to each spend either a morning or an afternoon with Grandma and Grandpa on their own. Below are some of the fun timers that we had while they were visiting:

Watching Daddy play basketball... and Emily found a feather :-)

Emily got an afternoon at the zoo! (Yes, it was FREEZING outside, but Grandma and Grandpa knew how much Emily LOVES the zoo and they braved the elements for her!) Emily said that the sharks and rays had missed her.

Christian's morning out included the "Mud Pies" program at Fontenelle Forest and some french fries and a milk shake at Summer Kitchen.

Both kiddos got to go to the movie theater for the first time! ("Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" was playing--a new family favorite! And, yes, by coincidence, Emily's friend, Xavier, was there too!)

We all went to BounceU one morning--Grandpa made it a personal goal to get through the obstacle course--we think he may just try out for "Survivor" :-).

Flying high and having a blast!

Finally, some quiet time...both Grandpa and Grandma enjoyed meeting little Kari--and she's never slept so well! (And for that matter, Cubby and I both got to sleep well as they told Emily and Christian to come down and wake them up each morning so that we could sleep in! They were so excited about this that on the first morning, it was just before 6:00!!!)

Thank you soooo much, Mom and Dad Lindseth, for making the drive during these snowy times and helping out so much while you were here. We all miss you very much! Come back soon!
