Finishing up Gma and Gpa's Visit


For the last day of their visit, Grandma and Grandpa did not disappoint! Since it was the kids' first day back from Spring Break, Christian went to preschool (it was swimming day!) and Emily did a half-day. Grandpa and Daddy went to visit Christian at school and Grandma went up and had fun with Emily in her class. (I stayed home while Kari took a nap.)

After some lunch, we all piled into our van and went to (where else?) the zoo! It was a bit overcast, but really, not too bad! We all had fun and got some great close ups of one of the gorillas. (They really are just the most amazing animals--the intelligence behind their eyes is just incredible.)


In this shot, the gorilla kept glancing out of the corners of his eyes to check out Kari (who's waving) and Christian. He had been looking at Emily until she ran around to get another view.



Grandma and Grandpa had to get back home Wednesday morning--a tearful good-bye was had by all, but we're all looking forward to this summer when everyone will be together again at our family reunion!



Thank you for visiting and for all of the wonderful times, treats, and love that you bring each time you come! We love you, Grandma and Grandpa!
