Thanks Oma and Opa

Many many thanks to Oma and for a SUPERB and LONG holiday weekend.  Last Wednesday the boys and I headed to the mountains with Oma and Opa, returning yesterday.  We all had tons of fun.

The weather was absolutely gorgeous.  It was so nice out I actually could play with the boys at the park every day.  That was a special treat for all of us!!  We learned Jack is a natural soccer player (paying attention while watching the World Cup with Oma is paying off)!!  Both the boys are quite entertained by Mommy doing headers!!!

We also had fun at the Biltmore.  Jack and Ewan liked seeing the animals at the barn, especially the sheep yelling for their dinner!  Ewan also had a great time holding a baby chick....Jack took a little while to warm up to that.  And of course we all LOVED dinner there, this time at the pub, Cedric's. 

Of course it wouldn't be a trip to the mountains with some bakery goodies enjoyed by all!!!  And a trip to O.P. Taylor's.  We all LOVE O.P.'s....the best toy store ever.

It was more relaxing for me since Oma and Opa were there to help with the boys.  Life is much easier with help!!!  What would we ever do without Oma and Opa???!!!  Glad they will be around to help with D3...it takes a village as they say and family is everything.

Yesterday we managed to have fun at Looking Glass Falls with Daddy before we headed home.  Now it's Daddy's turn to enjoy the mountain air and go dirt biking...a long deserved break from work!!

I'll post photos later....Josh has my computer in the mountains so I'll update things when he gets home.
