Grandma and Memaw and Bapas, oh My!

On Friday night when Adele and Daddy arrived home from the PBS Kids event, Dee Dee and Michael were here. We grilled burgers for dinner and as soon as we were done eating, Memaw and Bapa arrived...and "relative overdrive" began!

Memaw and Bapa were loaded down with gifts-the "favorites" being a "Cinderella" purse and jewelry set from Bapa and a "Belle" Barbie from Memaw. Somehow, the girls were able to put their excitement aside and sleep (well, I might add!) before heading down to the Children's Museum with Dee Dee, Michael, Memaw, Bapa and Mommy while we waited for Grandma and Grandpa to arrive. We checked out the new Polar Bears and Penguins exhibit and had to drag Adele away from the "penguin slide" where she was actually SUPPOSED to go down on her belly!

After lunch at the museum, we dropped Memaw and Bapa off at their hotel and headed home to meet up with Grandma and Grandpa for even MORE treats!


They brought a whole bag of peanut-free Halloween goodies for Miss Adele...talk about heaven!

And again, despite her excitement, Adele took a good nap before heading over to the hotel to go swimming. Both sets of grandparents stayed at the same hotel, which made for a nice visit by the pool! It was a bit hot for Anna, who didn't care too much for the (chilly!) water, so she spent some quality time with Memaw in the lobby. Adele, on the other hand, was not bothered by the cool water at all. She jumped, dunked and even invented her own little splashing game to play with Daddy, Grandma and Grandpa!








When Adele was worn out from all of her swimming, we went back home to take a bath and get ready for our "Fancy" dinner at Charleston's to celebrate Anna's Baptism the next day.
