Sharon & Grace Visit

Jeff's Aunt Sharon and Cousin Grace came to Reno a couple weeks ago. It was so much fun to have them here! Grace is such a sweet four-year-old. I definitely have some great milestones to look forward to!

We had a blast touring little bits of Reno. I took them to Scheels, an amazing sports superstore. It caters to anyone and everyone in the family. We make a trip to this place at least once a week, so Claire can see the "fishies" in the two enormous tanks there. In the center is a HUGE ferris wheel that Claire is still too little to ride, but Grace was able to enjoy it.


We had a BBQ at our place so that everyone could catch up and the girls had a blast playing in their matching outfits:




We also made trip downtown to the end of Reno's yearly Artown events. It was more fun to watch the people than the performances.

 Poor Jeff/ Lucky Jeff. It was estrogen central at our home. 
 Just to let you know how outnumbered Jeff was all weekend, here are all the girls he was surrounded by:


We also asked Aunt Sharon to take some family photos of us while she was here.
They turned out beautifully!

One of the days, we took them to our favorite beach in Tahoe, Sand Harbor.
 The kids seemed to enjoy the freezing water :)

What a fun place you guys live! My girls would be dying to visit the horses every day if they were that close, and what the heck--we have a Scheels and it is NOT as cool as yours! Cadence is looking so much older already, and she is so so cute!
