Our Idaho Visitors.

Our September began with a visit from Grandpa and Grandma Stanger.

Shea had to work most of the time considering he had just put in his two week notice for Booz Allen and was preparing to start his new job at Deloitte.

We spent a lot of time at home hanging around the house waiting for both Connor and Shea to come home.

We loved spending breakfast with everyone, especially Grandpa and Grandma.

Connor had school all week, which was hard to be excited about when he knew he was leaving Grandpa and Grandma.
Fortunately Grandpa was able to help take Connor and pick him up, and even surprise him at lunch with Shea one day.

Grandpa always spoiled the kids with the tablet which they fullheartedly loved.

Connor's newest passion is for LEGOS and playing LEGOS with grandpa was both hilarious and quite possibly Connor's favorite part of their visit.

We took a trip to CHUCK E CHEESE one night.

Connor was go go go as expected!
Bella was entertained and loved watching the Chuckee Mouse from afar as he led a parade. She followed too keeping his distance and in the end she got a whole bunch of tickets; which she was very proud about and told everyone repeatedly.
Sydney wanted nothing more than to be free to explore independently, which wasn't always easy.

Sydney was really curious about this fellow...

Bella enjoyed an afternoon TEA PARTY with Grandma!

When the weekend finally came we enjoyed a day at the park, feeding ducks and a picnic dinner.
Which of course was accompanied by exhaustion and tantrums.

That night Grandpa also treated us to Dunkin Donuts for dessert!
Yep we were spoiled.

Saturday was bittersweet. We had a big day. Playing in the pool at Grandma and Grandpa's hotel (with Marco Polo hilarity) and going to Dave and Buster's for Lunch and Games, AND going to Chick Fil A for dinner. 

Then it was time for goodbyes. The worst kind. 

Their visit was too quick and now we miss them already.
