Parental Visit

So this weekend we had a visit from my parents (hi mom!). It was their second time coming to visit and their first time meeting Jetta. We had steaks on the grill Saturday night after they got here and while we were cooking we got to catch up on their recent trip to Germany.  Abby(my parents dog) and Jetta met for the first time and it went fairly well. Jetta wanted to play and Abby didn't. No surprise there! It was still fun watching them interact. Olivia of course couldn't get enough of Abby. She was squealing with delight the moment Abby got out of the car! We had a great night catching up and my parents were able to sleep on our brand new mattress we got for the guest room! So exciting!

Anyways...the next day my mom and I took a quick trip to Wal-Mart...me to pick up the Sunday paper and my mom to take advantage of our cheaper sales tax! After that we loaded up the vehicles and headed to the Augusta Canal. It was a beautiful day again, nice, not to warm but not too cool. Love it! We had a short walk because Abby does not tolerate long walks but thats ok. We had a nice leisurely stroll and enjoyed the scenery around us!

After that we headed home and started some brats on the grill. Yummy. Of course like all good things their visit came to a close as they had a long car ride home. Apparently made longer by construction. Stinks. We still had a great visit and the girls really enjoyed seeing their grandparents again!

We are looking forward to our next out of town guests! We officially have a bed in the guest room so no need to sleep on our blow up mattress! So come on over!

 Grandparents and the girls....note the matching Packer attire!

 Olivia was so fascinated by the water she wouldn't turn her attention to the camera for a minute!

 Pretty! Olivia is finally doing her 'regular' smile. :)

 The Murren clan! (and my belly button...apparently taking over!)

So cute! Looking good Mom and Dad!
