Grandma (and everyone else!)

Whew! We had a busy week! Paul's Grandma arrived this past Sunday and stayed all week. The rest of his family flew into town on Tuesday and stayed for several days. We were so, so honored to have Grandma come visit us. It was our first time to have a grandparent come and stay at our house. We went on lots of adventures and ate yummy food together. After Paul's parents, sister & nephews arrived...it became kind of crazy at our house with a 4, 3, 2 & 1 year old running around...toys EVERYWHERE! But so much fun! While we are glad to get back to normal--we wish this wasn't so out of the ordinary--hanging out with our families, that is!

The girls and I took Grandma on a boat tour at the Riverwalk.

Hannah & Natalie enjoyed Fiesta Farm petting zoo with their cousins, Ashton & Weston.

Everyone LOVED the pony rides except Natalie ;-)

We fed & petted bunnies

Playing in the sand together was one their favorite parts!

Oma & Grandma at the park.

Oma read stories...

(side note: Hannah & Ashton are inseparable! Neither one wanted to do anything without the other. Such sweet cousins!)

We took Grandma to the SAS Shoe Factory.

Hannah modeled some but Grandma actually BOUGHT some!

Hanging out while Grandma shopped...

Hannah was fascinated to watch this lady sew the shoes by hand.

It was such a fun week, Grandma!

We love you and hope you will come and visit again.

Oma, Opa, Aunt Julie, Ashton & Weston,

It was wonderful to see you, as well! We love you!

Thanks for taking time to fly down to San Antonio.

We can't wait to spend time with all of you at Christmas!
