Birthdays and Grandparents

On Sunday my parents left our house and headed back to Idaho. It was so nice having them out here. They were so helpful. I was really sad to see them go and so was McKinley. She is still asking where Grandma and Grandpa are all the time.



My parents were such a great help. My dad cooked almost every meal and while he was out here he built some shelves for bretts desk and a barbie doll house for McKinleys birthday. Meanwhile my mom did laundry, cleaned, and helped with McKinley and Annabelle a lot.
We have been so lucky to have so much help since we had the baby. Bretts parents came out the week we had Annabelle to help. All the extra help has been wonderful. Having our parents out visiting made us want to move closer to home even more. We really miss our family.
While my parents were out we celebrated our birthdays. Brett was really excited about all of the great tools he got and I am really excited about my new sewing machine, and having my parents out to celebrate my birthday with me made the day even more perfect.
We got some family pictures while my parents were here. They aren't great, but they will have to do until I am willing to leave the house with Annabelle.


Thanks again to both sets of parents for coming out to help. We really appreciated your help.
P.S.- McKinley has been enjoying the slippers you left Grandpa.
