We got to spend five awesome days with Nana and Grandpa. We sent the men off to a Duke basketball game one night, ate lunch with the kids at their school, went on walks in the beautiful fall weather, read (and shopped for!) lots of good books, headed to Asheville for the weekend and explored the Biltmore, ate at fun restaurants, played games with the kids, and stayed up way too late talking almost every night. It was so nice to have my Mom and Dad here. My kids and Mark needed to see them, but I think I needed to see them most of all.
Here are some pictures from the visit:

| Grandpa taught Kimball how to play marbles, and the kids all loved it (I'm not sure why Liza is tackling Grant in this picture, but it's a common occurrence around here) |
We're all in mourning now that they've gone home (and since the election too!), but we're so glad we got to see some family before we head into the holidays. Thanks for coming, Nana and Grandpa. We love you!
