This past weekend Grandpa and Grandma came up to not only visit but participate in Legacy's Annual Grandparent/Special Person's Day. All four were so excited because they each got to perform for Grandpa and Grandma, as well as introduce them to their teacher and show them around their classrooms. Grandma and Caleb even played "Lets Make a Deal" where they won a Buffalo Wild Wings gift card and new fun family game. Nana was unable to attend this year, so I got the opportunity to be Elyse's and Ian's special person.
While Grandpa and Grandma were here we also did other fun things; like going to Chuck E Cheese, eating out, attending Elyse's basketball practice, took Grace for walks, played games and laughed a lot. Thanks for coming Grandpa and Grandma, loved having you here!
Results from drinking Dad's delicious blueberry milkshakes, lots of laughs and blue noises.
Today Nate and I decided to have a fun day with the kids at Mall of America. We had a great time; we did a little shopping, ate some yummy treats, and of course hit up Lego Land and Nickelodeon Universe. Ian by far had the best day as he played in the new Paw Patrol-Adventure Bay and was tall enough to finally ride the large roller coaster with the rest of us.
Elyse and her classmates were asked to decorate a pumpkin like a book cover or a main character. They would then be displayed at our local library. Elyse chose to do the book, "Smile". It turned out great as we saw it today at the library.
Today both Caleb and Kallen's classes went on a field trip to "Berry Family Farms" in Anoka. It was a whooping thirty degrees outside but we bundled up and had a great time. Legacy's field trips involve inviting all family members to participate so both Ian and I got to join in on the festivities. We went on a hayride to find the scarecrows, succeed in making it through the corn maze, petted some animals, and each kid picked out a pumpkin to bring home. Love fall memories like today's!
