Week with Nana

Nana came to visit us for a week and the kids couldn't have been happier! McKinley and Denzil both would run around saying "Nana, look at me!" We didn't go out a ton but I could tell that the kids needed a little time away from the house so we went to the aquarium and had fun checking out the fish and touching the horseshoe crabs, starfish and the sharks. Denzil loves to look for fossils (a big sand pit with shark teeth in it, if you can find them). We didn't find any right off and smart Nana went and bought a shark tooth in the gift shop and buried it so Denzil could find it. He was super excited! McKin got a little tiny Nemo fish to play with too.

Our neighbors have lots of ride on toys that the kids just love!

We spent some time at the pool.

And our other big outing was strawberry picking. It was super fun. I don't think more than 5 strawberries that were picked by the kids made it into the bucket but they were enjoying every bite of those delicious berries. Then we got some homemade ice cream afterward that was amazing. Needless to say we had some pretty messy kiddos afterward but very happy.

We did the slip n slide with our neighbors. It was a bit cool that day but they had fun sliding with the help of dad.

McKinley learned how to peddle the tricycle and has since done it on the little 2 wheeler we have too.

Ruby had her first bath at home. This picture makes it look like she didn't enjoy it but she actually did really well with it.

This is Kin's favorite swinging place.

This is Denzil with his "bear" feet or dinosaur feet. He did this once with pennies when he was just over 2 years old and called them his "crocodile" feet. Silly boy.

Our sweet little Ruby. We love having her and Denzil is always super cute with her, telling her that he loves her and that she is so cute.

Thanks Nana for coming to stay with us. We had a great time and are looking forward to your next visit when we are in Utah!
