The kids and I went to visit Pop-pop & JoAnn, Calvin & Becky, and Faye & Jerry before Ryan returned from his business trip. The kids enjoyed causing chaos at the farm and Hunter especially enjoyed the tractor ride, though he really wanted to drive. Aunt Faye had a special gift for Hunter, a Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat quilt that she handmade to match his room decor. She was thoughtful enough to include Memaw, too, by using some of her fabric in the making of the quilt - we feel very loved! It is truly an amazing quilt, absolutely gorgeous and Hunter just adores it. At night when I tuck him in and pull the quilt over him, he often says proudly "Aunt Faye make this for me."
Upon Ryan's return from California, we headed to Ocean City for some much needed Mom-mom and beach time. The kids had a blast playing in the surf and her pool, as usual. It was very relaxing and we really enjoyed the time away. I celebrated my 34th Birthday while there too! Mom-mom watched the kids that afternoon while Ryan and I enjoyed some quiet beach time (and boy was it quiet without the kiddos - I think we forgot what it feels like to not jump up to run after one of them every few minutes). We returned to a delicious Pina Colada cake made and decorated by the kids! It was great!
We ended the week back home. Mimi and Opa kept the kids for a sleep over one evening while we got some much needed house chores and errands done!
Overall the week was a perfect mix of productive, relaxing and fun!
