Weekend with Grandma Emily

Grandma Emily was up for the weekend.  We always have fun when she's visiting…..although we sure missed Grandpa Kenny as he was in the field.

Grandma brought up Madelyn's birthday presents from Uncle Marc & Aunt Jody since Jack was sick the day of the party.  Aunt Jody always finds the coolest presents!  I didn't get a picture but Madelyn got a sleeping bag with a cute pig pillow!  Maybe this will be the ticket to get Madelyn to use the covers on her bed.  So far she's gotten into the sleeping bag but won't stay there - we'll keep trying!

Nailpolish, lip gloss, hair binders, barrettes -
Perfect gift as Madelyn is totally into these things! 

Ryan and I got a lot of things done since Grandma was watching the kids.  We cleaned up our lawn and pulled out a ton of dead/overgrown bushes.  I should say Ryan pulled them out and we helped haul them to the dump pile!  Ryan cut down a tree in our backyard, we put mulch down outside our front porch and then we planted a few flowers.

Ryan's family gave me money after my grandpa passed to buy a tree as to always remember my grandpa. What a wonderful idea!  Ryan and I went pick out a tree over the weekend and we got it planted.  I can't wait to see the red leaves this fall!!

Sunday morning we went to church.  It was Madelyn's last Sunday School for the year.  She has really enjoyed it and talks about going every week.  We barely make it through Sunday before she asks when she gets to go back.  So thankful she enjoys it and looks forward to going!
