While the boys are away....

My mom called earlier this summer and asked "Can we keep the boys for a week this summer?" Without hesitation, I answered "YES!" Don't get me wrong, we LOVE our boy time, but we also value grandparent time.

My sister and I spent lots of summer days at our grandparents growing up and we absolutely LOVED it! It didn't hurt that they lived on a farm and there was never a lack of things to explore.














My mom and I made a trip down to the ol' farm with the boys last week to visit my Grandpa and to meet my cousin's adorable baby (finally!) Things remain unchanged at the farm- just a little more dated and strangely enough things seem smaller, but I know it's just because I'm bigger. This place will always bring back such fond memories...and I know my mom's house in Wisconsin will do the same for my boys!





So what will Jacob and I do this week? You should see our list of house projects and odds and ends that we've been putting off waiting until we have time....well thanks for the gift of time, Mom and Dave :)
