Norah and Justin's Great-Grandma and Grandpa came for a visit and are now completely and utterly wrapped around their grandbabies' fingers! They brought baby and Baptism gifts along with them from everyone out in California. Norah loved her new dress, so much that I had to put it up before she ruined it with her enthusiasm. Her new toy is now hanging from the gate, and every time she passes it she presses the play button and dances to its tunes. Justin received an adorable teddy bear outfit, along with a new toy and a very special engraved cup (for his Baptism).

Great Grandma and Grandpa spent several days visiting and we enjoyed each day that they were here. They came to our house a couple of days, and on the last few days of their trip we went to see them at the motor home. Norah enjoyed herself immensely as she ran back and forth trying to get into everything imaginable. Fortunately Great-Grandma and Grandpa are used to having little kids around and were unfazed by her antics. She especially enjoyed her lunch of grapes, chicken, bread, grapes and more grapes. She also LOVED the captain's chair (driver's seat), along with looking out the window for squirrels.

Justin enjoyed being held without being on the receiving end of his sister's attention, spending most of his time sleeping in someone's arms. When he did wake up, he was full of smiles. We all had a wonderful time and it was very hard to leave and head back home the last afternoon they were here.

Thank you guys so much for coming to visit! We had a blast.
