Tom and the boys and I enjoyed having Grandma and Grandpa here for a week long visit. Grandpa helped DaDa build a beautiful, paver stone patio at the bottom of our deck (see during and after pictures below). Grandma went with us to Shipwrecked (a fun indoor play area that the boys enjoy on really cold, rainy, or hot days), storytime at the local library (Baby Signing) and at the downtown library (complete with puppets, juggling, singing, and more), and Moms & Tots (where the boys and I go twice a month to say the rosary and play with friends) at our church. Tom and I were thankful, as well, to have a little bit of “us” time while Grandma and Grandpa kept the boys for us and to have a nice dinner out, just the four of us (while our dear neighbor friend stayed with the sleeping buddies). It was fun taking Grandma and Grandpa to the neighborhood pool, where we take the boys several afternoons a week for a swim, too…reminds us how much we’re looking forward to our Lake Anna trip in July.
