4th Of July Visit

Just a few days after we moved in to the country house Mimi and Papa came for a visit.  I guess they wanted to check out our new digs.  Well, maybe seeing the 4 granddaughters had a little to do with it too.  So off we went to the Norfolk airport to pick them up.

We had to get there just a little early so that we could have a Starbucks treat.  Our priorities are in perfect order.

Just look at that patriotism!  It was 4th of July, so these 2 felt obliged to wear their colors. Caitlin's shirt says "Navy Brat"

Silly sisters!

And here is Mimi, fresh off the plane from Florida.
We don't know who that guy in the back is talking about corneal flaps.  I should have photoshopped Papa's face over his.

This is what we did alot of while mimi and papa visited.  We sat around and chatted, ate eggrolls and played cards.  It was fun.  I love my new kitchen for this reason, everyone feels comfortable to just sit down around the island and I'm not left all alone in there.
 The second night they were here we accidently discovered a great pizza and pasta place up the road in Franklin.  The power went out at the house and stayed out for hours.  Our group got hungry, so we ventured out to town in search of food.  I'm glad we did because that place was delish!  They make their own pasta and sauce and even the cheese is homemade.  I can't wait to go again.
