In-laws In-town

Our families are blessed with house guests this week. David's mom Kathleen and step dad Randy are visiting from Arizona. They had a hard time convincing any of us to spend a week in 110 degree Arizona summer, so they finally relented and joined the mountain folk for a week. Remember that when one of David's family members come to visit they get a double dose....Alex (David's brother), wife Kelcey, and baby Lilikoi live right next door! So visiting families get two for the price of one!
Our couch has been home to many cuddle puddles since the grandparents arrived Sunday morning. They did have a true North Carolina country experience after making a wrong turn on the way to our house from the Charlotte airport. But these southern mountain neighbors are friendly and will head you in the right direction and invite you in for some sweet tea to boot.

Randy and Nene (Kathleen's affectionate granny name....partially because we lived in Hawaii when she became a grandma and the nene is a popular bird, and partially because of Kathleen's fondness for horses...neigh neigh) are enjoying spending time with the kids and grandkids, having daily afternoon siestas, and all sorts of yummy homemade meals....
Here Randy and Alex are entertained with Lili's antics...

And what could be a better mid day game to play with grandparents then dress up? Don't worry, this is not the new look coming out of Scottsdale.....
