Grandma and Papa G visit!

Grandma and Papa G came to stay with us on the 28th and left the 2nd.  The kids were bursting with excitement!  We thoroughly enjoyed their visit.  We spent a lot of time playing Diablo with Papa and they snuggled with Grandma (mostly Carson).  We played board games, chatted and watched movies.  It was a very mellow, enjoyable few days.  

Grandma and Papa brought a new game for us to try "telestrations".  Apparently they played it at a ward Family home evening and thought it was great.  So we got to try it.  We LOVED it.  The kids wanted to play again and again and again.  There were several times Dillon got laughing so hard he literally couldn't sit still!     Someone was usually sitting aside to help Carson if he needed help spelling a word or didn't know what something was.  He mostly played on his own though.

Grandma snuggles include the ipad.  (Carson was irritated that I was taking their picture)

Tuesday we decided to head up to the snow.  The place where we had sledded before was completely bare!  We actually thought we weren't going to find any to play in at all!  After driving quite a ways further up the road we finally found a little side road, covered in compact snow to play on.  It ended up being great for sledding because it was smooth and slick and actually flattened out way down around the corner!  While we were up there we took a couple pictures of the kiddos.  

Grandma and Papa left this morning.  The kids were really bummed out.  Kayda had to go spend a few minutes alone to settle down.  They absolutely loved the time and look forward to when we see them again.
