Visit From Grandpa Lancaster

Dan's dad came down from Calgary for a long weekend trip. The main reason for the visit was so the boys could go to the PGA Golf Tournament. Byron Nelson. We got to play with grandpa too though so it made for a great weekend.

We picked Gramps up at the airport Wednesday afternoon and played in the pool until Dan got home from work. It's so fun having it warm enough to just live in the pool. 

We of course had to do water balloons. Thank you Costco! We've already gone through two boxes! We are water balloon fantastics over here. 


Dan got home from work and we spent the rest of the evening eating and just catching up. 
All the kids slept in June and Kate's room. It actually worked out rather well. It's not something I would want to do on a permanent basis (I'm a firm believer in personal space) but the kids thought it was pretty fun to be having a sleepover together. They didn't go to bed until late at night, including Kate, but they loved it. 

Thursday we played, Dan came home early from work and he took his dad to look at record players. It's been on Dan's list for a while now and it didn't surprise me one bit that he ended up getting one. It's really classy and is going to look great in the new house. We (I should say Dan) has big plans for one of the rooms in our house. We took grandpa to Brahms. June for some reason loves that place! Haha 

Friday we spent the morning doing our chores, cleaning the house and then Dan came home from work. The boys took off for Byron Nelson and the kids and I did our normal thing. 

That evening the boys got home, I went to a Lululemon Warehouse sale and then we spent the rest of the evening chatting and hearing all about golf. 

Saturday Dan and Greg were gone early that morning and spent the entire day at the golf course. The kids and I did our normal thing and waited for Grandpa and Dad to return home. After they got home we headed over to Chick Fil A where they were hosting large vehicles that we could go inside. 


Owen so badly wanted to get close to the cow, but this was as far as he would go. 

June really loves taking pictures and videos. So she asked if she could be in charge of the camera. These were a couple of her shots.

We ate and then got the kids in baths and ready for bed. We watched the golf footage to see if we could spot Dan and his dad anywhere and we totally did! The company Dan works for has a box and they were sitting at the 17th hole. It was cool! 

Sunday Dan and Greg went to the house and then headed to the airport to get Greg back on a plane. It was a fun trip and we really enjoyed having Dan's dad with us. We enjoy having guests and we can't wait to have more when we can actually fit! Haha
