Mimi & Pap visit

Here we are waiting for Mimi & Pap... this was the closest picture I got of LeaAnn standing in the chair.  Like Lydia's outfit? It's a favorite... this is Friday... you'll see it again on Sunday.

And they arrive! Complete w/too many presents of course!

 That night after presents, we went to the Winthrop fish fry. Saturday-day was LeaAnn's birthday party & Saturday-night Mimi & Pap watched the girls for us so we could go the Buchanan County Pork Producer's Annual Banquet w/Craig & Kris Wilgenbusch.  It was a fun night with great food, and to top it off, Chris was awarded the "Hog Wild Award" for promoting pork & the industry. He was surprised & super cute, and of course declined to give a speech ;) And I of course did not have my camera! Actually, someone sent him a picture, I'll scan it later.

Then on Sunday afternoon we went bowling in Manchester! Yes, this is Sunday, and that's the same outfit Lydia wore on Friday :) I think I washed it? ;) Doesn't she look ridiculously cute?!?  She was totally into bowling... loved every minute of it.... and Pap was a super patient teacher :)

 Solving world problems??

There she goes again... why walk? crawling gets me WHEREVER I want to go :)  I was thinking the whole time, "would I have let my first born crawl around on the floor at a bowling alley?!?"  Probably not... :)

Very serious about the whole thing :)

Better luck next time Linds ;)

There are no words for this picture :)  how stinkin' cute is she?!?

And she never did go down the bowling aisle :) we thought she might... but she didn't.

Looks good....

and score!! "I did it!"

Look what I found to play with Mimi :)

I don't know when she got so tall..

and Lindsay too!

break time...

"What? Mimi I promise I'm not going anywhere" :D Oh yes, I had to put her in the 'Little Sister' onsie one last time :)

Monday morning saying good-bye :( I tried to talk Mimi into staying another week... I'll have to try again next time ;)
