In-Laws visit

Okay so this happened a month ago, but I still want to blog about it. Homer and Adele (yes, Nate's dad's name is Homer, and yes it is the father-figure's name on his beloved Simpsons) drove from Casper, WY to visit us here in NC. Actually they drove from WY to visit a lot of people. First they stopped in TX and then in FL and brought fresh squeezed OJ up here for us. On their way back they stopped in ND. It is okay because Homer likes to chase trains and Adele knits. The trip was long enough to knit both girls sweaters! LOL

We enjoyed their visit. They got here on a Wednesday and left the next Monday. We went shopping, park visiting, train watching, BBQ eating, and friend visiting. All in all it was a great visit. We even took in a Duke Women's LaCrosse game. Iris was immediately reacquainted with her grandparents. To this day she always mentions grandpa's name when she drinks her OJ and grandma's name when she wears her sweater. Abby loved having them here too and enjoyed reading to Grandma. Grandma got to see first hand the early endoctrination of Global Warming in the book Abby brought home from school to read. LOL

So here are a few pictures of our time with them.

Iris and Abby at a car ride. We found a fun little park in Burlington with rides!

Here is the Carousel at Burlington Amusement Park.

Here is the final picture on their last day here!

Thanks for visiting! Y'all come back now y'hear!

***As an aside, apparently the sweater pictures are on Nate's computer. I'll try and get them on here soon.***
