A visit from Grandma and Papa!

Grandma and Papa came for a whole week! I can't tell you how excited we were to see them! We missed them soooo much! They are always so fun to hang out with and gave me some much needed help with the kids.
While the kids were at school (it just about killed them to have to go to school while they were here) I took them around the city showing them some of the sites we have found. They have been here before a year ago and did lots of the touristy stuff but this was a little different. They also did normal stuff with me too like going grocery shopping which made that so much easier!
Here is a pic of us at the Cliff House, a restaurant site seeing place that is at the tip of San Francisco on the Ocean Beach front. A very pretty view.

We also took them to feed the ducks at Stow Lake in Golden Gate Park. These ducks were crazy!! So So funny! After feeding the ducks, my dad rented a pedal boat for them and the kids to ride around the lake. They loved loved that! I stayed behind but my phone died and I couldn't get any pictures :(

 They played lots of games with Ella and Luke and got some good snuggle time in with AB. I don't think I held her once while my mom was here!!! Here my mom is teaching her how to count the pictures on a card.

We also took them for a campfire on the beach. We have been wanting to do this for a while and figured it would be the best time to do it when they are here because my dad is really good at that kind of stuff. It was a little tricky getting everything set up though. There are only 10 campfire rings on the beach that you are legally allowed to use. We did not get there in time so all the rings were taken. Soooo, we just followed what others were doing and dug our own pit. It worked out great! We had pizza and s'mores! Papa can tell the best stories around a campfire! The kids literally rolled in the sand. AB had piles of it in her ears!!

It was a great great visit and we can't wait to see them again!
