Grandma and Gpa's visit

We had a great visit with Joel's parents this past week. They bought the girls matching outfits, and we had a hard time getting them to wear anything else all week! So if you see the same outfit in most of these pics, that is why!!


Here's Larkin reading George and Martha to Grandma. She has the whole book memorized and thanks to the book, has started to say the phrase "cry my eyes out" almost hourly...as in- "I'm so happy I could cry my eyes out" or "This dinner is so good I'm gonna cry my eyes out."

We went to the trail near our house almost daily, and picked lots of flowers and went wading in the creek.


Easter egg hunt with Willa's playgroup-- Grandpa helped hide all the eggs!

We drove out to Marble Falls and did some strawberry picking. The bluebonnets were out in full force so it was a beautiful drive! We got enough berries to make strawberry shortcakes, 12 jars of jam, and still had extras for snacking!

Lesson learned from Grandpa--don't stick your head all the way through the ladybug hole or it just might not come out!!

The girls love to iron. I must have really made an impression on them with the one article of clothing I have ironed in the past YEAR!

Breakfast with Grandpa.
Every morning the girls couldn't wait to run to the guest room to wake up Gma and Gpa, and then they'd lay in bed together and make shadows with a flashlight.

We took them back to the airport today, and all afternoon Larkin has been saying that she's sad because she misses Grandma and Grandpa and wishes they were still here. Willa didn't understand why she couldn't get on the plane with them!

Thanks for spending your spring break with us, Gma and Gpa! We had such a great time we could cry our eyes out!!
