We picked up my mom and Mia (my niece-Matthew's daughter) at the airport. As you can see by this picture above that they were so happy to be together again. My dad arrived the next day by car to join us. That afternoon Aunt Margot, Brooke, Brady and Cameron came up to visit. We had a nice lunch together. Mia and Brady were so cute and they both put a show on for us by singing. So precious. We have some video of it as well.
Here is Mia, Emily, Callie and Brady sitting in the wagon. They played outside together for a long time.
Cameron was a trouper but in the end couldn't fight the sleep anymore and fell asleep right before they left. Isn't she precious? Beautiful!!!
One day we drove up to Manchester and went to this beautiful park with a playground and a nice walking/hiking path around a small lake. Here I am with Mia when she got a bit tired of walking.
Here is Callie with Mia.We stopped along the way several times to rest and enjoy the scenery. Here is my dad with his granddaughters.
Here is my mom and dad with their girls!!
Saturday was game day. Emily and Callie both had soccer games. So we packed everyone up and went out to the field. Aunt Margot and Jessica joined us. Above is Mia and Todd having a staring contest. Todd said something to her that she wasn't very happy with and she said, "I am just going to stare at him." And she did. Of course Todd played along.
Here is Todd, Dad, Aunt Margot, Jessica and Mom watching the game.
Emily and Mia snuggling during the game.

The weather turned a bit cooler but one night we decided to get out of the house and go to another park here in town. Here is Mia laughing so hard. She was sitting on something that the girls were jumping on which made Mia bounce up and down. She loved it!!
The three girls sliding together.
I took this picture looking up into an enclosed slide.
This park has a hiking trail as well. It takes you down to some waterfalls. Some of you might remember the pictures I posted of the Mother's Day floods a few years back. This area was completely flooded. You couldn't get near this area. The waterfalls and stream are behind the girls.
I love this picture!! They all look so happy and glad to be with each other!! Our week was great and we will always remember the fun we had.

Meanwhile...we are heading to the end of our school year. Because of all the snow days and ice storm days our last day isn't until June 23rd. We have had a lot of school functions happening. We had the Art Show at Callie's school and the Artfest at Emily's school. I will post pictures next of some of the art work. The Artfest at Em's school was quite an event. They had a book fair going on, art displayed all over the school, a hot dog dinner for all and a concert to end the night by the 5th and 6th grade bands and the Jazz band. During the hot dog dinner they asked the kids to do solos, duets, trios, etc with friends and/or family. Emily and I did two duets together on stage while people ate their hot dogs. I was so nervous but so glad we did it. I have posted a video of our duets. It is hard to hear as everyone is talking. We were the background music for the dinner as was many other kids and their parents.

Wonderful Mommy and Daughter duet and great memories were made. All those rude hot-dog eaters missed a great tune. See you at Carnegie Hall!
