parents visit~

this past weekend my parents came up for a visit!

the kids were so excited. we decided to head out to the arboretum and let the kids play.

on our way there was a surprise outside. george brought up a new company car..

a mini cooper.

garran was really excited. he really likes mini coopers..

the boys asked if they could ride in the "cool car"

that is how they refered to it the rest of the afternoon!

the boys in their car seats waving good bye to me.
george told garran he could try it out. garran said it was really fun to drive.!.

the arboretum was great. everything was in bloom and beautiful.

on our way to the play area i passed one of my favorite flowers.

i love these.

i even had them as part of our flowers when we garran and i got married.

we made it to the kids play place that has a sand area, fish pond, and toys to ride on and play with!kael played with every watering can he could find.

i think my mom must have filled it for him a million times.

cullan found his tractor!

that was it. he was happy!briea was not feeling well that day. she was a little grumpy.

but she enjoyed sitting with mom hanging out by the fish pond!

after the arboretum we headed to a different park to have a picnic!

briea started stealing the food right off my plate. she would just sit there with her mouth hanging open waiting for me to let her have another bite!
after a few bites, she was in a much better mood. she started smiling and chatting with grandpa george!after lunch the boys went a played on the playground and grandma decided to give briea a treat!

she gnawed on it for a while and seem to have some fun.

the boys made all kinds of friends while at the park, including a red head that informed cullan that she was his girlfriend!!

see previous post for details ;0)

my parents brought up this guitar for cullan. he is very into guitars.

he loves it.

he plays it CONSTANTLY!!!

garran keeps threatening to help lose the batteries!

ps. aunt monica.. we got your pictures and cullan plays the thomas cd all the time!

thanks for thinking of them!
