Grandma & Grandpa

Grandma & Grandpa Allen came for a visit this past weekend.  We were so excited to see them! They came on Friday night just in time to say Hi to the kids before bedtime.  On Saturday we went to the Science Museum and watched an IMAX film on the Hubble Telescope (very cool) went to McDonalds, and played outside.  Madeline learned to ride Anna Elise's bike with out training wheels, which meant that Madeline's bike (with training wheels) was available for Lilah to ride.  We had some very happy, fast wheeling girls this weekend.  On Sunday we went to stake conference and then had Anna Elise's baptism.  My Uncle Jim and two of my cousins, Merry Brooke and Tara were able to come down to visit my parents and be there for the baptism.  On Monday morning my parents had to leave and we had to return to real life.  It was so fun to have them here, even though it was only a couple of days.  We LOVE family to visit and welcome anyone and everyone!
