| Grandma Lou-Lou and Papa came to visit and it happened to be timed with more of our house showings. The trip was already scheduled before we ever even knew our house was going to go up for sale. It turned out to be very helpful - keeping the kids out of the house for long periods of time can be exhausting! We took day trips and with four adults it was far more do-able! Here is a picture of Papa reading to Jameson at a bookstore in Old Town. |
 |
| A day trip up to Estes Park. We just hung around town, no hiking this time but we still had fun with the outdoors - making and throwing snowballs. |
 |
| The snowfall up there was so pretty. On the ride back home, Rob spotted a big horn sheep crossing the road while we all slept soundly in the back of the car. |
 |
| A night with Papa's homemade pizza. This time he experimented with our go-to gluten-free pizza crust - and he liked it!! |
 |
| Jameson got to learn some secrets of the trade. Now, will he be able to remember them? |
 |
| A relaxing morning with coffee, a "new" wooden train set (they brought Uncle Tyler's old Brio set) and some movie time with The Polar Express. |
 |
| One morning when we had to be out of the house and it was around Ava's nap time, Rob and I took her for a long ride and Papa and Grandma Lou-Lou took Jameson to Cool Beans - a playhouse coffee shop. They had a lot of fun playing and jumping. Before sitting down to eat, Jameson apparently went up to Grandma and said "All the jumping's made me hungry!" |
 |
| Out for breakfast in Old Town - yum! |
 |
| An excited Jameson as he waits for his pancakes to arrive. |
 |
| The last full day of their visit was our second open house. My parents took the kids to Ryan's, our local Packer bar, for the start of the game while Rob and I met with our Realtor to discuss an offer that we countered and they accepted - hooray!!! We were able to join up for the end of the game and hear about how much Ava loves french fries (though she has to be the one to pick them and only wants the long ones) and how much Jameson loves the video arcade games - wait, what?!?! |
 |
| For the next Packers game, Rob and I returned to Ryan's and we sent this pic to my parents entitled "Your influences...LOL :)". Jameson also learned a little something about what makes the world go 'round: standing in front of the pinball machine, he told Rob "It needs money, do you have any money?" And at the claw machine "No, that needs money, too". |
