Matt's family (Rod, Dixie, Cara and Kinsley) came to visit us Memorial Day weekend. They left Friday after school and got here at 2 am on Saturday morning. We had the Eagle Run at 8am, so they didn't get much sleep that day. After the Eagle Run, both boys had baseball games. Saturday night, we grilled out and just hung out at home. We watched "The Greatest Showman", which is one of the boys favorite movies. On Sunday, we went to church, put the water slide up here and hung out, and then went out to dinner. On Monday, Rod and Dixie headed home. Cara had already finished school, so she and Kinsley stayed with us for the week and flew home on Friday.
We loved having them stay a few days longer. Kinsley started to really walk while she was here, had a blast climbing the stairs, and was constantly entertained by the boys. Landon and Keegan loved having their Aunt Cara and cousin here. It was a busy week with multiple baseball games, and all of us were still in school. Matt worked from home a couple days to hang out with his family, and I got to hang out with Cara and Kinsley for a couple hours on my own every day since I'm done with school at 12:30 each day. We spent a couple afternoons shopping, and Cara and I even got a pedicure one afternoon while Kinsley hung out with Uncle Matt! Cara also took the boys out for ice cream one night, and Matt and I got to watch Kinsley. Such good times. I wish we were able to see them/spend time with them more. We instantly missed them as soon as they left :(
Here are some pictures from our fun times. I have a lot of Eagle Run pictures so I will post those in a separate post.

This is one of my favorite pictures of the 3 kids. It was taken outside of church.

Stan and Marcia made us yard yahtzee for Christmas and we finally got to test it out. It was a lot of fun!
Landon worked really hard on this surprise for all of us on Saturday night for the Cubs game. He called Dixie earlier in the week and told her to bring construction paper for him. He made everything himself and even set out peanuts, sunflower seeds and bubble gum for us to eat during the game.
Kinsley loved Keegan's scooter
She also loved all of Keegan's puppies, but especially this one. She gave this puppy hugs all week!
Matt and I took Kinsley for a walk, played outside with her, and gave her a bath while Cara took the boys for ice cream.

Thank you to all of our visitors for coming to see us. We had a blast and really appreciate you making the drive/flight to come visit us!
