Grandpa Mike

Grandpa Mike came to visit last weekend. We love it when he comes!!!!

Grandpa showing Mason how to build a card house. I believe it is an exact replica of the floor plan of our house (to scale of course).

I know you didn't want me taking this picture, Grandpa, but I love how it shows your total commitment to playing with the kids.

Grandpa, Mason and Ellie

This is a common look from Mason. I believe here it was his "Say cheese" face.

Grandpa and Ellie

Grandpa brought "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" for the kids to play. Ellie loved the blindfold and decided riding her bike while she couldn't see was a fun adventure.

Saying Goodnight

Mason and Ellie have a nightly routine where they give each other a hug and a kiss before bedtime. It is the sweetest thing for a mother to see. 
Sometimes it goes a little too far and Ellie ends up in tears. 
But it shows how much they love each other, and it makes me smile everytime I see it.
