Visit from Auntie Katrina, Uncle Andrew and Grant!!!

We had a wonderful visit with one of my best friends and her family (Auntie Katrina, Uncle Andrew and there son Grant!)this past weekend. Poor Uncle Andrew was a trooper since he didn't feel good the entire ride to our house...we are happy that he felt better the next day:-) Although it was a quick visit we packed it full of things to do! We got to see our new house, stopped by a few parks, the Mommy's took the kids to the zoo and the Daddy's went to the PGA golf tournament on Sunday!! We can't wait to see them in August when we go to Sesame Place!!  Thank you guys for visiting us....We Love You ALL!!!

When they arrived we went to show them our new house and go to the park!!
Layla loves this little horse!

 I have always said I wanted to put videos up: (more to come!)
Here is a short video of Layla playing the chimes and Auntie Katrina is holding her!
 When we got back from the park Layla opened her gifts(her birthday present and her baptism gift;-)) Thank you!!! It was so very thoughtful of you guys!
