Grandpa Jim comes to visit!

Today was a fun day because Grandpa Jim came to visit!  Grandma Marcia was away at a scrapbooking weekend, so he decided to come up for the day.  We spent the majority of the day at the cabin.  Nolan absolutely adores both of his grandpas, so he was so excited to spend the day outside with them.  It was a beautiful day - about 40 degrees - so it was perfect for them to sled and build a snowman.  I was so surprised at how long he wanted to stay outside.  Usually after an hour or so, he's ready to come in.  Today he was out from about 10 until about 2, with only a short break for lunch.


Miles really enjoys his time at the cabin and is so good about sticking around.  He really put on some miles today though, especially when he followed after Steve's truck all the way to the old cabin and back, on top of lapping the cabin and game opening several times.  I'm so glad we have a place to take him where he can run and have fun.


Roxy is going to be 11 this year, but is still sassy with her barking and howling at the shenanigans outside.  She likes to play "king of the mountain" and watch Nolan play.



Livi and I spent most of the time snuggled up in front of the cozy fire - we both even dozed off for a minute!  It was a nice, relaxing time.

 We're glad that Grandpa Jim came to visit and I'm so glad that my kids have such devoted grandparents.  They are pretty lucky to have unique and special relationships with each of their grandparents, and even most of their great-grandparents!  What a fun and relaxing way to spend a Saturday!
