Grandma & Papa Visit!

We have had a fun, busy week so far.  On Sunday afternoon Grandma Denny and Papa flew in for a visit.  Ian picked them up from the airport and we got to hang out and play for awhile that afternoon.  Mel and Brad joined us for dinner and games that night too.  It was really fun and I was the big winner in Mormon Bridge, so no complaints.

Monday was a packed full day since it was the last day we had Weston home from school.  His request for his last day of Summer was to go to the Children's Museum, so we got ready and headed downtown to the Gateway.  Grandma and Papa had never been to the museum and we hadn't been since Talia was a tiny baby, so it was all kind of new.  Talia loved it.  Her favorites were the balls, the tiny piano in the house, the water table, and the magnets.  The boys already knew their favorites and had a blast playing and showing all the cool stuff to Grandma and Papa. 

 

 

 

 

 

 We stayed until we got hungry then went to In N Out for lunch since Grandma and Papa don't have it in Oregon.  Lunch was delicious.  After that we drove out to Riverton to look at a bike for Davin that was on KSL.  The lady ended up having two bikes for sale that were Davin's size, so I let him choose between an older Spiderman bike and the newer Tonka bike.  He went with the Tonka one.  It's a good bike and he's having fun being on a big boy bike with Dad and Weston.  Grandpa put the training wheels on when we got home and helped him ride for awhile.

 

 

 Grandma went with me and Weston and Talia to Weston's Back to School night, which was actually at 3 in the afternoon.  We went and met his teacher, Mrs. Peterson, and explored her classroom.  Weston was excited to see the Fox Hollow Elementary fox mascot too.  We were a little confused trying to find out about when and where the bus would pick him up, but we managed to figure it out. 

 

We also found out that he is an early bird.  I had requested the later gator schedule, so I was kind of bummed that he had to go early, but Mrs. Peterson's later gator class was already more full than the morning so I didn't bother trying to switch him and so far it's worked out ok.

We ended our whirlwind day with a trip to Target to pick up a bike helmet for Davin, some school supplies I didn't have on hand to send to school with Weston on Tuesday, and an alarm clock to get him up in time for the bus.  Dinner was low key,  followed by baths and a quick school blessing FHE.  Then Weston set his alarm and tried to get some rest for his first day of first grade!
