Nana
and Papa brought Aaron and Hannah up for a few days during their Spring
Break.
Andrew, Kelly, and Logan came up for the first night. Stephen took the
adults to our favorite restaurant while I was home with six kids (I volunteered),
and they were able to get in to the bistro area for
Happy Hour. Andrew said that the food "lived up to the hype" because
we had talked about taking everyone there for so long and described how
amazing the food is. Wednesday was the first day with the kids
together. Benjamin went to school while Nana, Papa, Andrew and Kelly
headed to a store to explore. Then I
volunteered in Benjamin's classroom and brought him home and the kids
played all afternoon together. On Thursday, we went
to local wildlife park for the first time. We had a great time seeing all
the animals. The kids had fun afterwords buying geodes and breaking
them open. Then on Friday, the day before
for they left, we explored the Sound at a state park, gathered
shells, and had yummy fish
and chips from fabulous restaurant that we ate on the pier. We had a great visit
and wish that it could have been longer.
