Fun Week!

Gramma came up to visit so she could see the girls at gymnastics, swim lessons and visit in general.
 Gramma and Landon
 Landon loved Harley.  Anytime Harley would jump around or lick him, Landon would start giggling like crazy!
 Gramma braved the chilly water and actually swam with the girls on their final class
 They did great and loved having her there.
 Puppy Paddle
 Back float
 Big smiles.....the cold hasn't set in yet.

 Love this picture.
 Next was Amelia's turn!
 Big smiles from Amelia!
 Good swimming skills!
The back float.....and Amelia covering her ears so the water doesn't get in.
Puppy Paddle

Gramma at gymnastics!  Amelia was so very excited!
Amelia on the balance beam.  Every so often she would look over smile oh so big and wave at gramma!
Working on bunny hops
Bear crawl on the balance beam
Pre-dismount
Stick and finish!

We then all headed to Orange City for Tulip Festival!  It was freezing!
 We had to buy a hat and gloves for the girls it was so cold!
We found out the merry go round is not Isabelle's forte....she loves to lay down, but then doesn't hold on and slid right off!  Needless to say - I guess we'll wait til she gets a little older.
 Amelia loves the merry go round too!
 Who can stay awake when rolled like a burrito?!
 The girls also went on rides; however, this ride was a mistake....
 Isabelle HATED it and cried.  We felt really bad and it caused her some hesitation for the other rides, but she was a trooper and still went on some of the rides.
 Like the carousel with daddy!
 Grandpa and Amelia
 Sleeping again.....Landon did spend some time awake!
 Amelia and grandpa going down the big slide!
 Going up to the slide....Amelia is looking excited!
 Mommy and the girls on the carousel
 We also visited grandpa at work!  I think Amelia can handle sitting in the 'power' chair
 Grandpa and Amelia
 Mommy and Isabelle on the slide!
Amelia and mommy going though a maze of sorts
Up and up we went!
Through some ropes and stuff
Amelia on the roller coaster!  She only went once, which kind of surprised me since she seemed to have so much fun.
Amelia is the 3rd from the front
Big smiles!  You can almost see when her stomach drops or the momentum is pulling her based on her smile!
The ferris wheel. 
Gramma making Lando laugh!
Grandpa and Amelia on the slide!
And of course we couldn't miss out on the desserts!
Little Miss Independent refused to take a bite off the stick so I had to break pieces off for her.
But she still managed to hit the cheeks with whipped cream!
Oh so yum!!!!
Isabelle, Amelia and Grandpa on the swing!
Wrestle time!  Looks like grandpa is losing!
Amelia explaining something to grandpa!
This year we went to the fly in pancake breakfast!  After eating we looked at the planes and the girls had a blast running around!



Trying to get the girls to pose for a picture



After the pancake breakfast we went to a farm and immediately the girls fell in love with the cat
Daddy and Isabelle - she was not excited about how loud the tractor was

Amelia went on a tractor ride with gramma


Amelia insisted I take a picture of the cat so she could remember it.  She loved that cat!
Grandpa feeding a sleeping Landon....yet still eating

While the week was good the ending was not so good, but that is for a different post.  Thanks for coming up gramma!
