Seven Days With Grandma and Grandpa

We've just wrapped up a wonderful week with Grandma and Grandpa visiting from Glen Ellyn. As you can see there was plenty of quality time spent together:

Throwing rocks down at the pond

A picnic breakfast complete with kep-pup

Hanging out with Grandpa

Snuggling with Grandpa

Memorial Day concert at Reihle Plaza

Putting final finishing touches on the swingset

Super excited about her very own slide

Dinner on the picnic bench

Not even broccoli could lure her away from the slide

A big thanks to Grandpa for all his hard work assembling the swingset. Don't ever believe the instructions when it boasts "2 people 6-8 hours to assemble." 43 pages of instructions and 20-some odd man hours later and the project was complete! We know Kari will get miles of use (and we'll get miles of pictures) throughout the years.

Kevin and I each spent some time away from home this weekend; he in Las Vegas with a buddy from work for an annual guys' trip (yes, we were out there less than five weeks ago), and I was in Cincinnati for the wedding of a dear college friend.

Oh, and I found out that I passed my glucose tolerance test. I celebrated that evening with a big ole' chocolate milkshake.
