Jay had another few days where he had to go to a conference, this time in Colorado. So, the girls and I packed up and went to MN to visit the other grandparents! By the way, my camera cord broke or this would have been updated a LONG time ago. Beware though, I took A LOT of pictures! When I saw A LOT, I'm not joking. Be prepared.
We had an amazing time and were busy busy!

Emma & Grandma! |

Lily enjoying herself! |
|
Dinner time! |
|
Playin' in the tent. |
|
With the pretzel in her mouth, this reminded me of an old western movie! Haha. |
|
Bows!! |
|
Snoozing. |
We went to visit my Grandma Reineke. It was so wonderful. Jay's parents actually knew my grandma before Jay and I were even dating. What a small world! We found out on this visit, that Lily was my grandma's 23 GREAT-GRANDCHILD!!!!! How crazy is that!?!?! And, she can name them all! It was wonderful talking with her and letting her meet yet another great-granddaughter!
|
Emma was putting her penguin to bed at Great Grandmas. |
After the visit with Great Grandma Reineke, we went to Cabela's! I loved this place when I was a little girl, and I think our girls will love it too! We went to look at all the animals!! Emma loved it!
|
Love this face! |
After nap time that day, we headed to a park!
|
Doesn't this make you feel warm! |
|
Swings! |
|
Slide! |
|
Emma's new Elmo "Mo" from Grandma! |
|
Amazing. |
Emma enjoyed time with Grandpa in his Man Cave. Driving already!?!?!
|
Enjoying the tent they built! |
|
All smiles! |
|
Reading... |
|
....reading some more. |
Saturday, Grandpa had a secret place we were heading too. We went to a pumpkin patch!!! It was so fun and exactly what I even needed. Confession: this was the first pumpkin patch for all 3 Udey ladies in this family. I have never been to one; this was such an enjoyable time and so relaxing!
|
Lily really enjoyed it :) |
|
Here we go!!! |
|
Someone loves her Grandpa! |
|
Driving again!?! |
|
The bounce house! |
|
Swings! |
|
What a cute witch. |
So, Emma wasn't tall enough to go on this slide..... but Darlynn asked and I volunteered to take her. She was in LOVE with this slide. We only made it about 4 time I think as I had to carry her up the ladder and was getting winded!
|
It was even fun for me! |
Another bouncy thing.... well this time Grandpa hopped in!
|
Emma trying to chase him! |
|
I think we need a corn box! |
|
She wanted to swim in it! |
|
Emma and Grandma! |
|
Cute pumpkin! |
|
Checking out the animals! |
Off to the hayride!
Back home to relax!
Bath time before heading back to Des Moines!
Emma apparently needed to dance just a little more before we left. :)
We had SUCH a wonderful time!!!!!
(If you can't tell from the pictures!)
