To Grandma's House We Go!

Today we are all recovering from a great weekend! We took Jillian on her first plane ride to meet my grandparent's for the first time. We were a little nervous because we weren't sure how she would react to flying (especially since she was getting over a little cold) and because we didn't know how we would react to flying with 2 little ones and ALL the stuff you need to be able to travel with them. But in the end, it was great and getting to spend time with my Grandma and Grandpa was well worth it all.

It had been quite a while since Meredith had seen Grandma and Grandpa, but she couldn't have been more excited to run right in, give them hugs, and get to playing!

We loved getting to play outside especially because there are horses and a cow that live right behind them. And their neighbor has a beautiful yard complete with a coy pond - Meredith was more than happy to take over the weekend's chore of feeding the fish. We enjoyed some great Grandma signature homemade food and even a trip to the Precious Moments Chapel for the girls.

Grandpa and Jillian

Meredith loved playing with their workout ball when she was little and immediately found it this trip too, guess who else had a blast! Jillian was so funny pushing it around with her little feet.

Naptime for the guys

This little kitty was my aunt's as a little girl and we have pictures of my brother and I as babies playing with her and I of course have one from when Meredith was little too, so now we have proof that all of the Hanks girls love this kitty.Jillian and Grandma playing - they both had lots of fun.

Now it is Grandpa's turn!

Meredith loved the horse and getting to pet him
Of course the girls had fun with each other too. Meredith loved these stools - usually they were drums.
My dad happened to be in town for work, so we got this cute family shot. Meredith was incredibly happy to have her Papa with her!
