Grandpa and Grandma Came to Visit!

We love when the Grandparents come to visit...we always have so much fun.
We went school shopping, ate Mexican food at Old Town, read lots of books and went to the zoo.
Our zoo trip was one of the best yet. We saw the baby tigers and hippo. The Koalas were awake and active which I have NEVER seen. They had brought in lots of milkweed by the bug house so there were tons of monarchs. The Galapagos tortoises are some of our new favorites...the one name Madeline loves to have her head stroked. And the one in the picture was the model for the character of E.T. they call him the movie star. :) We were also able to see the sloth right after she gave birth, the baby was clinging to her tummy so it was hard to see but I caught a glimpse.
We also went to LEGOLAND.
Emma was finally old enough to drive the cars and tall enough for most of the rides.
Star Wars Mini land was pretty cool. What they create from Legos always amazes me.

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the wonderful visit, the new clothes, and for everything else you do for us. We love you!
