Since Ryan is uber busy lately with work and then his MBA program, the kiddos and I decided to take a few days away (let daddy take his midterms) and go see Nana and Papa in MI. It was a quick but wonderful visit. We got to do all the fun fall things like a pumpkin patch, playing in the leaves and carving the pumpkin. Unfortunately I forgot my camera but at least I had my phone, so sorry the pictures aren't the greatest quality, but at least we have a few of something for our memories:-)
Story time with Nana
Attacking Papa for his ice cream:-)
Since my favorite hair lady is in MI and Nana is always willing to help watch the kids I usually take advantage of being there and get my hair done. After going from highlights to blond then to red, I am finally back to natural brown...until further notice:-)
Aunt Melissa was so wonderful helping me out and playing with the kiddos:-)
Playing in leaves is so fun!
Love this kid:-)
Papa was so wonderful to help us carve our pumpkin!
LJ loved every part but touching the insides of the pumpkin. She cried until I washed her hands:-) As long as she could use a spoon she was good.
Exciting time ahead also! My parents (Grandma and Grandpa Bird) are moving to Chicago today! That means they will only be 3.5 hours away from us so there will be MANY more pictures and wonderful times with them in the near future!!
