A beautiful day!

Today we woke up and jumped out of bed without our usual slow Saturday morning pj, blankets, fruit loops and cartoons on the couch routine!   We were excited because Grandma and Grandpa were coming to visit and we had stuff we needed to do so that we could just sit and enjoy our time with them.
Lil miss dressed up for her visitors in her "most favorite" outfit!  She's just a wee bit cute!!! 

Our wonderful visitors arrived and we had a great time.  The kids pulled out puzzles and we had puzzles everywhere!  Our living room floor and kitchen table were covered!  It was fun though!  Some of the kids really tackled some hard puzzles and it was great to see them stick it through and finish them.  I was really proud of them.
Jameson tackled a new puzzle that was pretty challenging for his first time!
He wasn't overwhelmed by how long it took him either!
Different angles help.
He persisted and finished it all on his own and he was SO proud of himself!  Doesn't that face just melt your heart?


Every time Grandpa comes down to visit he tells us about this game called Cornhole.  Tim thought it would be a great idea to build our own Cornhole game while Grandpa was visiting.  They scrounged in the garage and found everything they needed.  It was extremely hot outside, but they didn't care.  They were so excited to build something with Grandpa!
 They had a lot of fun building together!
Even the littlest man got in on the action!


While the men worked, us girls took Grandma and went to the new JoAnn's in Gainesville.  We oooh and ahhh'd over lots and lots of stuff.  We are excited about starting some sewing projects soon.  Morgan got some new cross-stitch material, Becca and Holland each a small craft to  paint and put in their room.  When we got home Holly got back to doing puzzles while we got dinner ready for everyone.
Holly finished two more puzzles before dinner!  The kids literally did puzzles all day between playing, building, shopping, etc.


After Grandpa and Grandma left Morgan, Justice and I watched a few episodes of America's Got Talent.  We totally love that show!  It was fun just sitting and hanging out with the kids after a beautiful day together with family!
