Nonnie and Papa Get a Glimps into our Crazy World

My Grandmother and Grandfather came to meet the new baby Nixon and get to know the boys a little better. Our visits to Ohio are always filled with so much running around and seeing so many people, its always nice when family visits us. During these visits we really get to have one on one time so they can really get to know the kids (in their element). My grandma was amazed at the hustle and bustle that went on during our everyday routine. At one point she said she was going to write a book about my life. We had such a wonderful visit with them, we all really missed them when they left.

Just about everyday we would wake up and get our day going with a few cartoons. I would then serve lunch and lay Lennox and Nixon down for nap and Grandma and I would head out to the Grocery or the Mall leaving Grandpa and Xzavier to have a quiet afternoon. Most of the time we would be out a tad too long and by the time we got home Grandpa would be manning the fort and doing a GREAT job. I truly am blessed to have such great genes, I hope I'm as active and young at heart at 80 as these two are. Thanks for being a great inspiration to me and my family. I've learned so much about being a great mother and provider to my family from your example. You two have such a strong, loving relationship, I hope to provide the same warm spirit and environment to my family that you have always provided to me. Love you both so very much and can't wait to spend more time with you soon.

and the boys thank you for a week of playing in this great house. They even colored it to make bricks like the three little pigs house and a sign on the front door that said "No Wolves". They colored pictures and even ate lunch in there.
