Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day Weekend was so much fun this year! My entire family, (minus Ben, we missed you!), came to Idaho Falls to visit. We had all 8 grand kids together for the first time ever and they had so much fun!

A picture of all 8 kids. They were eating dinner waiting for grandma and papa to get there. Montanna is the oldest and will be 4 in just a few weeks. The 6 older ones played so well together and the other two will next time when they are a little older.

Grandma and Eden

Blowing Bubbles! Grandma and Papa brought bubbles for everyone. It stopped raining for a few minutes so we could go outside and blow bubbles. Papa could blow huge bubbles and all the kids tried to pop them.

Bubbles everywhere

Eden's cheese.

Aubrey learned how to pedal and was testing out Montanna's bike. 

Since it was raining and too wet and cold to play outside we went to McDonalds and played in the playland and ate ice cream cones. 

Brynlee and Aubrey. Yum!

Lydia , Eli and Linda Lee 

Papa and Lydia

Aubrey enjoyed McDonalds from the bottom of the playland. Lesley took her through one time and she HATED it. She did not like it at all and was crying for a while after she went through. Now she knows what it is like and I don't know if she will go through again. That's probably okay though because we were all washing our hands with wipes and hand sanitizer. Not the cleanest place in the world. :)

Bryn loved the slide and went down all by herself several times. 

Papa and Eli

Grandma and Eli went through the playland together. Papa and Grandma each took several trips through. 

We got all the coloring books out and I think the adults liked coloring more than the kids. Dad colored a Jungle Book picture. Eventually the kids joined in.

It was chilly. This is a picture of the first fire in our fireplace. 

Papa and Grandma each had an iPad. The kids loved playing games and watching movies with Papa. 

Visiting in the living room 

Fingernail painting party. Even Eli got in on the action and got a fingernail and a toe painted. 

Montanna and Brynlee both have birthday's coming up on June 22 and June 23 and so we had a little birthday party. Both of them loved opening the presents from grandma and papa. 

We had such a fun visit with everyone. Anyone and everyone is always welcome at our home. We love visiters!
