Visit from Gpa and Brookside Gardens!

Well as you can see Grandpa came in town!! We are so lucky to be able to have my dad come and visit so often and Barrick loves it as you can see by the picture! It was so fun!! We went to dinner and spent the night together last Wednesday. Then Thursday my dad came up and we had breakfast together, then went and ran some errands and got lunch at Panera. It was so fun to be able to spend time together. Barrick loves his grandpa and they had so much fun playing together!

Here is Barrick and Grandpa!
While he was in town he bought Barrick some new shirts and this is one of them which again Daddy has a matching one. So here are my boys in there matching shirts. Thanks Gma and Gpa for the new clothes!
Then today we went to Brookside Gardens and we had such a fun time. There were five of us who all went together with our kids and it was so nice to get out of the house and spend sometime with friends. Here is Barrick and I in the Butterfly exhibit. He was very excited about the Butterflies, they were flying all over and Barrick kept trying to grab them he LOVED it!!
Here is Barrick trying to grab anything and everything he could get his hands on.
Here is Barrick and Lucy after we came out of the butterfly exhibit! Aren't they cute! It was such a neat place they had a fragrance garden and a rose garden it was beautiful and nice to get out! Thanks for the fun day!

That is so nice that your dad gets to come visit every once in a while, how fun to get to spend time with your dad. That Garden looks like fun. We need to get in all the outside activities while we can, I don't feel like I am taking enough advantage of it.

That's great that you get to see your dad when he has to come out for a business trip. Barrick is lucky to have such a wonderful Grandpa. It looks like the weather there is still pretty nice too!

He looks so cute in his new little clothes, what a sweet Grandpa! I love when the seasons change and your kids start wearing pants and long sleeves it makes them look so much older. He looks darling!

How nice that your parents buy little Barrick clothes. My parents do that for Jenny all the time too, but for some reason I never get anything. Must be that struggling law/medical student thing...who knows. Looks like fun though, I am sure you loved having your dad visit!

Yeah for visitors!! It is always so nice to have family come into town. I had to get pregnant to talk our parents into coming out! It looks like you guys had a great time.

Barrick is sooo cute. He must be about the same age as our Sullivan. Aren't they so much fun?
