Held Hostage ;)

This weekend has  been a wonderful one so far! My mother and father-in-love, or better known as Papa and Rosey, came to visit, which always delights the children, and well, I have to say I get just about as excited! They are definitely some of the most important "balcony people"  in my life! I could go on and on for a long long time on how much these two people mean to me!  ;) They are two very extraordinary people, and I am beyond blessed to be their daughter-in-law! And my goodness, did they raise two exceptional men, and one of them was just for me! :) Just for fun, I have included their beautiful pictures courtesy of their grandchildren! hehehe :)

 

I don't know about you, but I think the big kids have totally gotten the hang of this photography thing!

I am sure you are wondering where in the world the title of this post came from if I am talking about how wonderful my weekend is! However it has absolutely nothing to do with their visit! ;) I was also able to squeeze in a little girl time this evening...which turned out to be more like a little shopping followed by an hour of the most terrible restaurant experience I have had to date! By the time we left, we had satisfied our chocolate craving, but we were still thirsty, extremely irritated, and still looking for our biscuits that apparently went MIA. The waitress said it best herself as my sister was signing her receipt..."I will not hold you hostage any longer" ha!! Couldn't have said it better myself!! ;) Boy, was that an experience! Oh well, the company was nice, and bless that waitress' sweet heart!! ;)

Side note, I ended the day holding a precious new baby! Of all the wonderful things in this world, the start of a life, a newborn baby, has to be the most wonderful, joyous miraculous times in this life. Love. Pure love. So happy for that little family! Oh what the future holds! New life, new bonds, a lifetime ahead of such wonderful wonderful times! Babies just make me giddy! :) Can't get enough of the babies!!

And just to leave you with a smile, I have picked out some of the children's best photos taken over the last month or so! :)

Pictures of each other :)

 No one else in the world could get this look from daddy! Daddy's little girl! :)

 Ada's feet :)

Love this look :)

Giving the kids cameras is one of the best things we have done! It is so fun to see some of the things they photograph and its all from their perspective! :)
