A Visit from Omaha

Grandma Braska and Aunt Kari headed out of town this morning after a week long visit with the boys. It was fun to have them here. Sorry I didn't take any pictures during their time here. Mostly because I was just plain lazy. But they had fun with the boys for sure. The boys got to stay home from the babysitter and be with them every day. They went to the park, to the zoo and played here at the house a lot. Mike got to go race them at the fast track go-karts while me and the boys watched and we got to spend time just visiting, eating and playing a couple games together. I also had the bright idea to take the twins to Build a Bear on Friday to let them build their first animals. Zaden picked out a puppy and Zaric picked out a koala bear. After they were stuffed we picked out a light saber accessory for them each and boy was that a mistake. Now they want nothing to do with the animals. All they want to do is play with the sabers and play Star Wars. So much for good intentions. We then ventured up to Midway to Swiss days for their last evening here and walked around all the craft booths. I bought only a few girly things. Mike and his sister also got some new tattoo's during the visit. They also got their first tattoos together at the same place 5 years ago so we thought it was funny to do their 2nd ones that way too.
We were all hoping for a visit from little Miss Faith and a couple of times with the wicked contractions I've been having, we thought we were onto something but no go. She's still baking and comfy. So I guess they'll have to plan another trip after she gets here.
