A Weekend with Granny and Grandad

We spent the weekend with Granny and Grandad! They came down from NOVA for a visit and the kids were so excited to see them. We ate lots of food, went shopping, visited the duck pond and went to see Daddy at work. Everyone had a lot of fun and can't wait until they come back.


On Friday we waited for everyone to wake up from their naps and for Brian to get home and then we went to downtown Blacksburg to get some cookies from Crumb and Get It. It's a really neat cookie place where you "make" your own cookies. You choose mix ins to go into an already made batter and then they bake them for you in 15 minutes. They were fantastic! We ate yummy cookies all weekend!


On Saturday we went out shopping before the football game. Then, we watched the Hokies play which wasn't so much fun. I am sure they will play better next time! We had Jimmy John's during the game for lunch, that was good at least. After the game we went back out to find new shoes for the kids. Both of them found new light up shoes. Ethan's will light up a whole room when it's dark! He calls them his "police man" shoes. Then we had PK's delivery for dinner.


On Sunday we were out doing even more shopping. We ate at Olive Garden for lunch. At nap time Granny and I headed out to Roanoke to do some new baby shopping. Our friends Lori and Bessie just had their new little baby boys! Congratulations both of you. Your babies are the 2 cutest babies on the planet. Oh, then we had dinner at Cabo Fish Taco in downtown Blacksburg. Cabo Fish Taco is a very unique place and the food is FANTASTIC!


Monday morning we went and saw Daddy at work. Granny took his picture and embarrassed him to no end. Then it was time to say goodbye. So sad. But we will see Granny and Grandad soon!

Feeding the ducks at the duckpond. This has definitely become one of Ethan and Tabitha's favorite activities in Blacksburg. No baby ducks this time!

Granny and Grandad also brought some pictures along with them of Bailey who has been living with them while we are in Blacksburg. We miss you Bailey! We love seeing pictures of you though! Bailey has been busy doing barn chores, feeding the horse and sleeping. From what we hear she can never be more than a foot away from Grandad at all times!


Thank you so much Granny and Grandad for the fun visit. Thanks for the food too!

We should have also taken a picture of the 4,000 stairs we had to CLIMB UP to GET to Daddy's new office - old building, no elevator. Poor Daddy. He has a big window though. Granny&Grandad
