Last Friday, my Dad flew into town on business and the kids anxiously awaited for Grandaddy to visit! Here they are on the steps eating fruit snacks as patiently as they could.
And then he was here!!
He brought Bakugans! The kids were elated as they love them and have a little collection going.
The kids LOVE the goodies that he brought for them! Grandad could hardly wait to give them to each of the kids. Ryanna got a little pink book light, and she's actually always wanted one! She reads hours and hours a day, so this was perfect.
Carter loves his Bakugan. He constantly throws it and loses it. Who knows where it is, I actually think he lost it right after I snapped this picture.
Dawson got a "laser blaster" that can change the laser pictures. There's an alien ship, an astronaut, a smiley face and a pair of feet. He loves it!
We played with the toys for awhile. Grandad showed off on his Ripstick that he brought over from Shanghai. The kids got such a kick out of this! Seeing him wiggle and wiggle was a sight.
I love that my Dad loves my kids so much!
Then we went over to my most favorite restaurant in the whole world! Costa Vida!! Thank you for a delicious Sweet Pork Salad, Dad. Seriously, it's HEAVEN! It's also a small world, we ran into a couple of friends that used to live in Shanghai and were in my parent's branch. My brother, Aaron, actually was their Home Teacher! It was so nice to meet them, and they talked of how much they loved my parents.
Carter just liked the pop.
After we got done eating, we headed over to R. C. Willey to visit Donny at work. I'm so glad that I brought my camera, it made for some fun pictures. Dawson absolutely LOVED this bed. He kept asking if we could "afforded" it. Maybe someday, kid.
Ryanna loved this chair, it could twirl and go pretty fast. Sorry this is blurry, I was giggling at her little pose and the camera couldn't focus.
Carter was enchanted by this Sleeping Beauty Carriage bed and kept jumping on it. He loved playing in it and we kept getting the stink-eye from a passing salesman.
Ryanna loved it though!
They made a mess of the sheets and I had to fix it, of course, aforementioned salesman was still watching us. I don't think he liked my taking pictures either.
This was GREAT. The kids were so excited that they had this in the center of the kid's department. You could purchase this for your kids to play on, but because of liability, the kids couldn't play on it. It had TORT written all over it, Ryan said. But it was ironic!
But we miss GRAMMIE!! And Uncle Aaron. Hurry and come home, please?!

Laughing and crying right now! Seriously, this is my favorite post of all time. Love seeing your dad there with his grandbabies he loves so much. Really tugs at my heart. You know I love you....but I think the only thing that will make worth leaving here is your babies. Thanks for having such cute ones! Can't wait to see them, hug them, take them on grammie dates, take them to costa, take them on walks, play with them on the playground in the park, kiss them, did I already say hug them? Love you!!
