Yes folks, I know...I'm really late. But without further adieu, here is a little taste of their fun visit!
I didn't realize just how much the kids and I were missing our family until our first visitors came. Granny and Morrie came to visit for a week and a half back in March/April. We had so much fun, and enjoyed every day of their trip! So many sweet moments, and so many memories. Only pictures can possibly do justice.
We took a trip to a nearby aquarium and the kids loved seeing all the fish, and for being in Italy it was quite a nice aquarium.
Italy is all about family, and not much into entertainment so sometimes finding things for kids is challenging. Unless of course a park will do...and it always does. The park in our town is quite nice too! Even Lola got a little field trip.
I know that's a lot of very similar pictures, but I couldn't resist showing the kids progress from sweet and compliant to wiggly and silly.
Bedtime stories are a must, and Granny and Grandpa Morrie do not disappoint!
Took a day trip to Verona. Lots of walking, but we survived.
The awkward statue of Juliet that if you touch her right breast you're supposed to have good luck...ummm, no thanks. haha
Found a delish shop very close and enjoyed treats. Then outside in a large square just down the street there are lots of random vendors set up and in the middle of the square a grand piano. Not sure how exactly he got it there, but it was a nice break to stop and listen.
You've always got to take some time for selfies. Yep...even us. The followin 2 pictures are with nothing less than kazoo's. Granny and Grandpa brought them for us AND the kiddos, who knew they would be such a hit. We played them for quite awhile after they traveled home too. I think we may have finally just lost/slobbered too much on the last one. I didn't know it was possible to out-slobber a kazoo, but my kids...let me tell you.
And a sweet picture too.
GELATO - simply a must!
Thanks again for coming to visit! The kids had an absolute blast, and love the book of your photos you sent! Come again folks!
Sure do miss you!
