Visit with Grandpa and Grandma Randell

My parents came to visit for a couple weeks over the summer. During their visit they got to do a lot of different things with the kids, from attending swimming events, doing lots of fishing, watching movies, and an opportunity to visit with old friends. Eliza had swimming practice every evening at the pool and they got to come to her final week of practice.

Hanging at the pool with the boys.
Last year my dad taught the kids how to fish and they have been hooked ever since. They fished all summer caught a lot of bass while fishing with my dad.
Benjamin likes to bring his catch up too the house for us to see :).
Big fish for a little girl.
These kids are bass magnets.
One day they went to see Inside Out 2 at the theater with Eliza.
The last weekend of thei visit, my mom went to Lynchburg, VA to visit her friends Carmen and Bob, who are friends of my dad and mom from NY, before my parents were married. It had been more than 40 years since they had seen one another, and my mom was very excited to take the train to Lynchburg for a weekend visit. It was a special weekend for her and we are glad she was able to make the trip down.
We are thankful my parents were able to come visit and spend time with our family.

Thank You Heather & Nathan - we had the best time with all of you. It was perfect - seeing the kids in some of the activities; hanging out with them and both of you, and going out with the family. Dad had as good a time as the kids fishing :) oh, and Caleb, another fraction of an inch and you will be taller than me :)
Love you all xoxoxoxoxo :) :) :) :) :) Mom & Dad R
