Papa

 Papa came to visit at the beginning of June and we could not have had any more fun!  We went to Como Zoo, we went on walks, we went to the MOA (a few times), the Aquarium, and to the Water Park of America! The kids were super excited to play with Papa, and I was excited to show him around this city we've called home for the past year (any other takers for a tour? Julie? Mom? anyone?)  Every morning Elijah would wake up and ask to sit on the porch to wait for Papa.  Then eventually Papa would soon arrive and Elijah would instantly want him to race cars with him.  Evie got some snuggles in too.

 The 'stroller coaster'

 The amazing idea for a hotel room. What's this? A large closet?  Pull the curtain back and it's a bunk bed!!

Its been almost a month he has been back home and Elijah is still asking to go to Papas hotel or to play with Papa.  The other day we were leaving church and elijah saw a car that looked similar to Papas and he called, "Hey! dats Papas car! Let's follow it!!"  We miss you Papa, but we are so happy you could come see us!
