To Grandmother's House We Go!

This past weekend was one we'll always remember.....Claire had her first visit to both Grammy and Papa's house as well as to Grandma and Ops' house!  The visits both were a great success, Claire was the angel that she usually is and handled each visit like a champ!  On friday night we enjoyed a nice dinner and long visit with Grammy and Papa then woke up Saturday morning for an overnight visit in Lansing with Grandma and Ops.  We even fit in her first trip out to dinner with the family Saturday night, which once again, she did magnificently!  Michael and I have always felt so incredibly lucky to have such amazing parents.  We grew up showered with endless love and support and in homes that were always filled with smiles and laughter.  It's crazy to think that we are now parents to Claire and it's our turn to be the rock in her life that our parents were and still are in ours.  The best part about it all, is that Claire now gets to experience the same love from them that we have been lucky to experience for so many years.  To Michael and I, there is nothing greater than knowing that Claire is surrounded by so many people who love her.....Claire is one very blessed little girl to have Grammy and Papa and Grandma and Ops in her life!  We can't wait for many more visits to come and all the great memories we'll get to share!  Let the visits, outings, and sleepovers begin! :)

  2. Ha, yes he is definitely rubbing off on you Andi! :) Great pix, great times! I'm glad Ops got some Claire time. When the guys are surrounded by all the women, no chance! :)
