Brad’s parents, Mark and Carol or as we like to call them “Ma and Pa”, came to town last week. I know their nicknames sound a Little House on the Prairieish! When Carter was little he couldn’t say Grandma and Grandpa so he called them Ma and Pa and it stuck. Well, when they were here Carter told them that he wanted to call them Grandma and Grandpa but he couldn’t stick with it. I think it’s too late to change!
I like calling them Ma and Pa because it’s what Carter named them. I think they like it too!
Well, we had a great time when they were here. We went to downtown to have lunch with Brad one day. We also went to the park and the outlet mall. Most of the time we just hung out around the house playing trains and dress-up. The weather was pretty yucky the whole time. Of course we hit the new Wal-Mart and the grandparents spoiled the kids. Carter got lots of new trains, Cammie got some dress-up clothes and they both got some dvd’s. The checkout lady said “Looks like the grandparents came to town!!”. The kids were in heaven and Carter said “Ma and Pa love me TOO much!!”.
Ma and Pa–we had a great time with you! Thanks for coming to visit us! Also, thanks for letting Brad and I get a date in while you were here!! We love you!
