Only one month later, and I'm finally getting to posting my pictures from when my parents came to visit. Could I possibly be behind a little?
My parents came to visit us for Christmas and New Years. It was a wonderful time. Here are some highlights.
We gave them a calendar of all the grandkids.
Mom and Dad gave the girls roller skates.
They had been skating once, so they were a little wobbly, but got the hang of it quickly, especially after going around our tile floor in the kitchen.
Bella and Victoria used some of the money they had gotten from Christmas presents to buy skates for their dolls. They took them skating too.
Victoria was entranced in finishing a blanket for her baby cousin Sarah.
On New Years the girls played with Pop Its on the driveway. We couldn't find any real fireworks as we are in a fire ban county.
What goes better with pumpkin pie then lots of whip cream?
Carol and Dick also came over to celebrate New Years. I made our traditional dish of pork, hot dogs, sauerkraut, and dumplings. We played a game of how well do you know each other by filling out our favorite things list/future goals, and trying to guess who was who. It was hilarious to guess some of them- Bella's goal for 2014 was to have more fun and she would like to learn how to eat gross stuff without saying yuck. Victoria would like to get better at writing, and her goal is to improve at school.
W completed a 1000 piece puzzle based on the movie A Christmas Story.
And wouldn't you know it, one piece directly in the middle was missing.
