Daddy's in Disney so we went to Detroit!

Shawn took his band to Disney World over Spring Break so we decided to take a little trip to Detroit to see family. My mom went with us and it was so good to get away! The kids did amazing in the car and it was a really great trip. We stayed with my grandma and grandpa for 2 nights. It always amazes me that no matter how much I try and consolidate our stuff we always have so many bags to bring! Between the pack-n-play, diaper bag, bedding, and bags for each of us for our clothes we might as well stay a week! I think my grandparents would go crazy! I felt bad that we had to take up most of the rooms in their house but they are very gracious and I LOVE going there! It always so relaxing there and I reminisce of the many times we would go there growing up. Lots of memories in that house! There is just something about it that I can't put my finger on. Needless to say, it was fun doing the normal things of our life, just in a different place.


We had lots of time to just be together. You bet we had out the coloring books, movies, and reading books. The girls also loved jumping on their mini trampoline!
I just love this picture of my grandpa spending time with the girls.





Lovin on my grandma! I am so blessed to still have her in my life. She is definitely a spiritual mentor to me!







My Grandma planned an Easter Egg Hunt for the girls and Alex. It was so fun to watch them scour the yard for their 6 eggs!
Alex was so good with the girls and they just love her to pieces!










She even had baskets for them to put all their loot in!








Caleb was the most amazing baby! He was so content and hardly make a peep! He slept well and was content most of the time. This often means that when we get home he will be crazy!






A loving gaze for my Great-Papa!

What a priviledge it was for me to spend "life" with you for a couple of days. The kids were amazing!!! I also love that we still can spend time with grandma and grandpa. God is good!
