Our LOVELY weekend!

We were extremely blessed with a visit from Auntie Kim and Cousin Micah! They arrived at grandpa and grandma's at 1am Friday morning. Later that morning we bundled up (it has been so cold here with snow, hail and rain) and headed to the new house to show Auntie Kim and Micah around. We followed a dumptruck full of gravel on the way to the house. It was full of our porch! That's right! The porch is now filled with gravel ready for the floor to be poured. It was fun to see part of the porch driving down the road!

See? There is the "porch"!

There is Auntie Kim! Everyone got many hugs!

Lydia shows Auntie her hat.


David had "Charlie" there to scoop the gravel into the porch. Ben was thrilled to be able to ride in it and later drive it!


Grandpa put up the stairs to the attic that day as well! It is lovely to be able to walk up the stairs rather than the ladder, yeah Grandpa.


View from the attic!

Ben wishing he could drive "Charlie" all day long.

The guys were working hard to put the electrical box in.


Micah was there to help, too. Working with friends always makes work so much more enjoyable!


Micah's new "gun"! He had been "shooting" Ben with it earlier!


After church I took some pictures of Grandma, Auntie Kim, Grandpa, and Micah.

The handsome men!

Father and daughter.
It was so sad to have to say good-bye but we are ever thankful for them! We can't wait for their next visit!

I cannot believe how adorable your grandparents are. They look like characters! Are these the ones that are moving in with you?
