Our October Nashville Visitors!


What a treat for Brock and Kade - we had visitors from Nashville!! We wish they would have brought their warm weather with them too! Alas, the weekend they were here it was forecasted as the "worst windstorm to the Puget Sound area in the last ten years!" It was wet and windy, but nothing like they predicted. Unfortunately, it was windy enough to keep us from our ferry ride to Bainbridge Island! Boo!!
Still, we had a wonderful visit and were so excited about the late addition of Cousin Blaine to come too! Kade cozied right up to him and Brock could barely let Blaine have some space - always watching and imitating whatever he was doing! So cute!

Grammy and Grandpa enjoyed watching the younger set of grandchildren too! Poor Grammy looks so cold in this picture! ;)

A little rain wasn't going to keep Brock from soccer practice - not when you live in the Pacific Northwest! He was a trooper and did everything the coach asked him to - with his rain jacket on!
(He's in the blue jacket and red shorts)
 After a yummy birthday dinner at McCormick & Schmidt's (Not our first choice - what restaurant in downtown Bellevue doesn't offer highchairs?!?!?!), we headed upstairs for a little games-place action!

I must include this picture of Brock and Blaine two years ago (circa July 2014) - Brock was 18 months old. They BOTH have grown so much!

Kade can't wait to get in on the action too!

On Sunday, the boys were all decked out in their Seahawks wear to bring in the WIN against the Falcons. Good thing Kade was wearing his Sherman jersey to bring a little luck, so Sherman wouldn't get called for a penalty on that last play. ;)

I'm a very bad daughter-in-law this time around and did not take any pictures of Grammy & Grandpa with their grandchildren. It baffles me how I can say "we didn't actually do anything or go anywhere, yet we were sooo busy!!" How does that happen? Oh yeah, kids! ;)

We spent lots of quality time with everyone and really enjoyed the company. We heard some new stories about Brent as a child and Brent & Blaine were able to spend some much-needed Uncle/Nephew time together. Grammy got some one-on-one time with just Kade as the rest of us trekked off in the rain to Brock's soccer practice and Grandpa gave us a new electronic toy (Amazon Fire Stick) that has Brent & Brock super excited to watch movies! Even Oscar warmed up to the company and let Grandpa pet him on Day 3 (Grammy was on Day 2)!
