The Princesses visit Nebraska





We had such a fun time with our weekend visitors!!! Mom, Dad, Ann, Addeson & Hadley made the long trek to see us! They managed to keep Hadley strapped down in a car seat for 5 hours. That is no easy task with an active one-year old!!! Hadley wasn't so sure of us when she first arrived, but by the time she left, she was freely giving lots of kisses. Addeson has become such an independent and imaginative little girl. She loves to color. We have three beautiful pictures on our refrigerator to show off her work. With the new tea set from Grandma Nancy, she played for hours. She was great at making chocolate and strawberry soup, "princess" tea and noodles with sauce. We enjoyed several trips to the park, played with the new sprinkler in the backyard and the grown-ups even got out of the house for a few shopping trips. Ann and Mike took turns pushing me in a wheelchair in Kohl's. (Note: Kohl's happens to be a favorite store of mine and I hadn't been there for 3+ months due to my back issues!) The weekend flew by entirely too quickly. Our house is too quiet without the princesses. We can't wait to see them again soon!

For those not familiar with Runza, it's a Nebraska-based fast food restaurant with a featured sandwich which is a mix of sauerkraft and beef. Derrick tried a "Runza" at a Nebraska football game a few years ago and he wasn't a fan. It's been a bit of a running joke since then. As you can tell from the pictures, his daughters feel otherwise. They LOVE Runza!!!!!!
