A Quick Visit

 We slipped out to the acreage last week for a quick visit. I wanted my grandparents to be able to meet Oliver before he got too big for them to hold and cuddle. We drove out Thursday afternoon since Camilla had no school the next day. 

Friday morning we woke up to the most beautiful snowfall. It was wet and heavy and stuck to the branches of the trees around the acreage. It was so nice to cozy up inside and visit with everyone.



 Ollie was quite captivated by Gramma and grinned constantly while they visited.

 The little guy has chilled out quite a bit over the last couple of weeks. I love his little personality. He's pretty easy going like the rest of them!! 

 I hardly got any pictures of the other kids. They were busy playing with auntie's puppies and building lego all day long. Hyrum really enjoyed building this lego plane and was quite proud of his work!

Camilla and auntie Emma dug out Gramma's paints one afternoon and painted some awesome pumpkin pictures. I was so proud of Camilla's work I had to snap a picture of it!

Before we left I went over to visit my Grandparents one last time. Gramma didn't want any pictures taken, she hadn't had time to fix her hair yet. My sister snuck this one of Grampa and Oliver. His middle name, William, is my Grampa's first name (but everyone calls him Bill). I wanted to make sure I had a picture of the two of them together. Grampa told me that Oliver farm equipment used to be some of the finest farm equipment around. I held my Grampa's shaky hands before I left, gave him a hug and told him I loved him. He has a hard time saying that "L" word, but I can always feel of his love when we visit!
