Big Papa and Nana J come to town

We had the pleasure of having Mike’s Grandparents join us for just under a week during our big ice storm!  After arriving just before the storm on Wednesday night after a long day of driving we took off running on Thursday.  With the ice storm we got lots of home/chill/play time in on Friday.  On Saturday we all ventured out for Thomas’ first Little Rookies hockey practice (more on that on a different post).  After hockey we again retreated off the icy roads back home.  We then stuck close to home and did a few errands or dinner out just to not go stir crazy!  By Tuesday most of the ice had been cleared off the roads and we made our way downtown to the Dallas World Aquarium.  A super neat experience and I can’t wait to go back.  There were fish, monkeys, sharks, a crocodile and even a manatee.  It really had a wide variety of fish/animals and things that we had never seen before, there were even things Nana and Papa hadn’t seen!  After a full day out and about we were all a bit tired and we headed home to wait for Mike to get off work.  After checking the roads and mapping their route, Big Papa and Nana J headed back home on Wednesday morning.  It was great having them come in and we were able to make so many wonderful memories.  Can’t wait for their next adventure with us!
