Baby Brooklyn Visits (and Molly & Bryan too)

So Brooklyn woke up one day last week and said "Mom.....Dad.....I'm sick of living my whole life (all 3 weeks of it) in the cold and snow in Indiana" "Take me to grandma and granpa's house in sunny southern California!"
And so they did. We heard that Brooklyn travels very well and made nary a peep the whole way on the plane!
Bonnie and the kids were the only ones yet to meet Brooklyn and they were soooo excited! They went to the airport to pick them up and I don't think Bonnie set her down for several hours.
Anyway,Bryan had to go back to work, but Molly and Brooklyn are hanging here for a couple of weeks more and, as you can see, everyone is enjoying the visit.

We're sooooo excited!

Cousin CJ loves to hold Brooklyn.

Bath time

A little warmer please!!

Welcome to California, Brooklyn!!!!!

Blessing Baby Brooklyn

So, we got Jim on an airplane and went to see our new grandbaby Brooklyn Noel. She is gorgeous as you can see. It was a fun trip. We were there for her blessing along with Bryan's parents, Jeff and Mary.





Brooklyn was a great baby and let her daddy say all kinds of wonderful things about her. She is truly loved by lots of people.


While we were in Indiana, we decided to get out while we could and see some sites. The sites being The Indianapolis Speedway. Funny story, Molly worked in a grocery store a couple of years ago almost right next door to the Speedway and was talking to us one Sunday and told us how very busy and noisy it was cuz there was "some kind of big race" going on. You mean the Indianapolis 500? Ya I think that is it. Really Molly!




We also hit the local Mug n' Bun. Homemade rootbeer and burgers. They have expanded the Mug n' Bun and now you can sit down inside and order. They actually make your food across the parking lot at the original outdoor restaurant and walk your food over to you. Interesting.


On the last day, Jim was going buggy being couped up in the house because of the snow so he decided to have him and Mols make a snowman. It was a fun and productive endeavor.




We loved Molly and Bryans hospitality and will miss them and Brooklyn terribly but they
will be here the end of the month. Can't beat being in the airline industry when you live across the country.
