It has been longer than expected since our last Grand Loveland visit (due to the delay in getting the basement all ready); so it was safe to say that everyone was very excited when they were finally able to make it!
Shiloh was thrilled to give Grandma a present that she made first thing.
Then came out the gifts for the kids...
Ezra received a play gun that his Grandpa had made...
and daddy explained how it worked.
Legos and other treasure finds from Beach's youth!
Grandma always has some fun fashion as well!
They sure are loved!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The kids had a great time with their new toys.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dollar movie date to see the Lego movie....I'm pretty sure we were all singing, "Everything is awesome," the rest of the day!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Then it was off to lunch at my parents' house and enjoying the great unseasonable weather.
Gator ride around the pond.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These kiddos love getting all the grand attention...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Grandpa is a huge fan of a good malt...
and demonstrated to the kids how to make one happen.
Watching very carefully...
I would say they were easily won over...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day was a great morning for the park...
Grandma and Zoe matched somewhat this day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Then, while Daddy was off with a date with his mom, Glenn took us out to Chic-fa-la.
Topped it off with ice cream.
Selfie to prove that I was around that week too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The kids were pumped to be taken to Texas Roadhouse later that night!
Love them!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day was shopping day for the ladies....we were busy, so this was the only picture I managed to take of our time together.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Saturday morning waffle making, this edition with blueberries.
Little did we know that a slight mistake with the ingredients (mainly coconut flour) meant that we were all stuffed for hours later.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We headed to the downtown library were they had some events going on.
There were several stations set up for some crafts to be had...
along with some hooping.
AND free Pelicans snowballs.
Their first henna tattoos.
While we did have a great time there was also a bit of kid drama, tears, heartache, and a bit loss of my sanity (not pictured).
Since we were stilllll full we took a short trip to riverfront park.
I snuck away for a bit of one on one time with my Zoe.
Later that day called for Donna's cookie making extravaganza...
with some eager helpers.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the baking roll...Donna also got up early the next morning to make her cinnamon rolls.
"Little piece of Heaven!"
Then we headed to church.
And later our traditional Mexican for dinner.
Shiloh was determined to loose her front wiggly tooth while they were there and made it happen in the last hour.
