Family Visits


Sorry... I'm lagging behind I know... This busy life gets the best of me at times!

The middle of May we had a visit from our sweet Northern side of the family. Josh's mother, Joe, Sister Monica and her fiance Bart drove/flew in for a weekend and we packed in some fun!

Started off with a few large boxes of Josh's old toys and sport memorabilia.
We are talking hours of entertainment for Charlie! Old batting helmets, lego's, train sets - you name it, Nana brought it!


It was a BEAUTIFUL weather weekend and we took full advantage. Ate all our meals outside and enjoyed that patio and yard we have put so much love into this year!




Saturday morning was Charlie's final spring soccer game!




















We have so enjoyed watching this one run around like a chicken with his head cut off this spring! Happy to report he did score TWO goals ... for the opposing team! Oh Well, maybe we will catch on in the fall. We loved our team and had a fun doing whatever it was we did on the field every Saturday morning.

Glad the rest of our family was able to witness the mayhem!




Had to make a trip to Bass Pro... because that's just where you take your out of town visitors when they come to Springfield!



And then to Sunshine Valley Farm for lunch. So Delicious.




Josh and Joe tackled a few projects at home and the rest of us enjoyed a quiet afternoon in the yard.

Saturday night consisted of more grilling and more visiting!
Said our goodbyes on Sunday and sent our visitors back home... Thankful for the effort it takes to make the trip - anxious to see them again in July when we will celebrate Monica and Bart's engagement with a fun Par-Tay!
