Grandpa Jeff had a few meetings in Dallas so he came down a day early to spend some time with us and meet William. He got in on Sunday afternoon about lunch time and after some lunch and a little football he and Mike took the big kids to the sports store.
Then it was time to come home and head to the park for some JLBBA (Jeff Laschen Baseball Academy). Thomas had a blast and just as he was getting tired, Elin got attacked by fire ants. They had crawled into the wagon and as she sat to get a drink of water they started to bite her. We got the ants off her as quickly as possible and and a few bites later, she was ant free and we were headed home. Fire ants are a new bad thing around here….their bites feel like a quick needle poke and then they get blisters and really itchy. We have been luck to avoid them for the most part and hope to continue this trend.
When we got home we had 2 very tired kiddos on our hands. We got them in and out of the shower and then Grandpa read them a few books before Elin went to bed. Then Thomas got to go in the backyard again and play with Grandpa and have dinner with us before he went to bed. It was a fast few hours but we got lots of things jammed in with Grandpa. 
On Tuesday night Elin was already asleep by the time Grandpa got home from his work dinner. Thomas was exhausted too so he and Grandpa did a few animal calls on his iPad and then a couple books and then it was bedtime. It was a quick trip for Grandpa, but we will see him in a few more days when we head to Minnesota.
