Visit from Mississippi!

The other week both my sets of grandparents were able to visit in the same week! We loved having both of them come and meet Grace and see our new home! Both visits were quick, but so wonderful! :)
Nana and Papop came for three days to meet Gracie and see Evie (oh and Nathan and me too ;)). They said they were afraid that if they didn't come now, she would be walking and Evie would be in school before they got to see them again! :) Evelyn was *thrilled* with Papop and Nana Ruth and has been pretending to go to "Sippi" to visit them ever since they left.
Gracie loved meeting them!

Evie investigating her "presents" that they brought. She loves her new cradle! (it was supposed to be for Gracie, but they can share :)).IMG_1132.JPG
And playing the piano that Nana and Papop sent us (wearing her bear coat, of course!)IMG_1138.JPG
While the visit was short, we packed as much as we possibly could, beginning with the Beatles Concert (see previous post :)). Saturday we headed to the farmer's market; Evelyn loved being the tour guide.

It was such a lovely morning so we strolled through CW for a while as well. Evie never gets tired of watching the horses and carriages come and go. :)Nana&Papop Visit.JPG IMG_1179.JPG
We had one grey day during the visit so Evelyn took that opportunity to take Nana and Papop to her favorite indoor attraction - Yankee Candle. :p She never gets tired of their kids sections.
"Come on, Nana Ruth, let's go!"

Playing with the wind-up toys - if you look closely you can see that the dog is mid flip. :)IMG_1200.JPG
Even Gracie loves this place! (or maybe she's just overwhelmed??)IMG_3372.JPG
Taking a break from all the excitement:

Monday we took the ferry over the Chippokes State Park. I thinking feeding the seagulls on the ferry was the highlight, although the animals and tractors at the park were pretty exciting as well. :)IMG_3395.JPG IMG_3396.JPG IMG_1230.JPG IMG_1217.JPG IMG_1225.JPGIMG_3400.JPG
Besides these trips, we just enjoyed playing games, going to dinner (with Nathan's folks too!), going for walks and just hanging out.IMG_3401.JPGIMG_1188.JPG  IMG_1209.JPGIMG_3393.JPG IMG_1184.JPG  
Come and visit us again from Sippi soon, Nana Ruth and Papop!
