Welcome Mom and Dad!!!

My parents flew in to England from Pennsylvania and will be staying for a month!! We are so excited to have them here with us!


It is tradition when we all get together to have a cake and celebrate all the birthdays, anniversaries and special holidays that we have missed since being apart.






My parents









The kids are so excited to have Nana and Poppa here.








While my parents are here they have offered to watch the children so that my Husband and I may go on a couple's only trip. While we are away the kids will be spoiled and loved by my parents. The kids can't wait for us to leave so they can have Nana and Poppa to themselves. The kids are, right now as I type, planning all the activities that they will be doing with my Mom and Dad such as bike riding, making cookies, heading to a water park, visiting a hedgehog facility. Sounds like my husband and I won't be missed:)!

My husband and I are going to ICELAND!!! I will be posting about our adventures when we return.

    Okay, visit a hedgehog facility with your parents or go to Iceland with Dh alone... hmmm that would be a hard choice as I am obsessed with hedgehogs. Fortunately for me, or unfortunately, I don't have to make such a difficult decision. Hubby and I have not been away sans children in almost 20 years! Can we say Jeal-Ous!?!?!

    I'm so glad your parents were able to visit. I know when I lived in England, one of the most difficult things was that my family could experience it with me...or understand first hand the things I would describe. Glad they can have that time with your kiddos too!
