An extra special visit with Meme!


We took a very special trip this week down the PA turnpike to see my grandmother, Meme. It was the first time she got to meet many of her great grandchildren. Meme had only met Amelia a few years ago. We went to visit her where she lives at Country Meadows and had to reserve the party room because there were so many of us!! It's safe to say, we pretty much took over and caused quite a stir. Aunt Kris and Zoe joined the visit. It was so great to see Meme and have her meet Anna and John for the very first time. We enjoyed catching up, having some snacks, taking a walk outside, and watching Meem hit the balloon. We learned that Meem is a champ at trivia and working the computer :)

We spent the evening at Aunt Kris and Uncle Hooper's house where many people enjoyed hard crabs from Baltimore, a special treat for all the Pittsburgh folks :) The older kids had a blast riding around the neighborhood in Uncle Hooper's ATV. Anna and John will have to wait a little while before getting on that ride. It really was a special visit getting to spend time with family that we don't get to see a lot anymore. Hopefully our next visit with each other will be sooner rather than later!

Anna loved talking to Meme and touching her sweater.


Cousin Amelia saying cheese! She was the only one ready for this pic.

John hanging out with Aunt Kris and Nana. He was getting a little heavy so Aunt Kris had to sit down:)

Go Meem! She was a champ hitting the balloon.

ATV rides with Uncle Hooper. The babies were a little too young for this wild ride, but Ethan, Amelia and Zoe had a blast.
