A Visit From Gramma and Papa
















We had a nice visit from Gramma and Papa this past weekend! Unfortunately, it poured the entire time so we didn't actually DO anything but it was so nice to see them and visit! And nice that Dad did not have to go to the hospital this time! Uneventful is good!! :o) I think they have their holidays mixed up... they must have thought it was Christmas instead of Easter because they brought presents!!! Big presents! They have been busy in their workshop these days making fun things like rocking horses and toy trains and a special dresser for Anson! They are absolutely beautiful!!! We are enjoying all of them! And here is a sales pitch... they are selling these items now with more to come! They are researching pricing now and will have a catalog/blog soon. You just can't find these nice toys in the stores now. Who wants a rocking horse or train that was made in China, anyway! :o) These are keepsakes for sure and we are so glad to have them! Thanks again, Mom and Dad!!
And while they were here, Dusty and I got to go on a date! We had not been on one in a while! We had a great dinner at Vickery's (a local restaurant) and fun roaming the mall. It was raining so our options were narrow but it was nice to have uninterrupted talking time! :o)

What an ideal visit! Gorgeous hand-made presents that are useful and fun, AND a date. How nice that your dad is all better and up for travel and construction. We'd love to order from their blog, great stuff. 8) Keidi

What a wonderful job your Dad did on the toys! What little boy wouldn't love that train! I am glad he is feeling better. I am sure he will be able to sell wooden toys. Who really wants stuff from China anyways!

We know how amazing your dad is, and we would buy his stuff, too! Glad you enjoyed a sweet visit with them.
