Grampa John & Gramma Tere

A couple weeks ago we were blessed with a short 2 day visit from Grampa John and Gramma Tere!  Grampa left the farm in South Dakota and Gramma hadn't started school yet, so they made the 12 hour trip down the middle of the country to see their new granddaughter.

We all went to the zoo one evening and saw some new animals. My favorite are the goats and the meerkats...


Then we went to Kobe's steakhouse for gramma's birthday. Everyone got shrimp thrown at their face, and I think grampa was the only one who actually caught it. Chopsticks and fire on the table (grill) were definitely new experiences for Princess...it was really fun. Happy Birthday gramma!!

And of course we had to go swimming at their hotel. This was where Princess could really interact with gramma and grampa, and build some bonds with them. She loves the water, and had so much fun splashing around and racing with them! 

Oh, and we can't forget "THE PROJECT" that Grampa John did for us this time....every time he visits he has to do something productive for us, it's how he shows us love and we are very grateful for his talents (finishing our basement, building our deck and swings were some of his past projects). This time he picked up a trampoline for the kids at Sam's Club and put it together for us in our backyard! WOW, talk about the best gift ever. The whole family gets so much use out of that thing, and we get a good workout too! THANKS grampa and gramma!
