Grandma and Papa Hillins Visit!

Grandma Pauline and Papa John came to visit us in Arkansas over Labor Day weekend!  And boy did we pack a lot of fun in!!!  Trevor showed off his school!
As did Ashley!
Brian showed off his work too and the 4 of us had lunch at Sam's Club!
We got to celebrate Papa John's birthday while he was here!  Tiny cupcakes because Papa has a healthy goal he's trying to achieve!
We took them to the town square and ate at Table Mesa!
It was First Friday (how cool that both sets of parents got to experience First Friday!) so we got to show them what a small town does on a Friday nite!


Every visitor must have their picture taken in front of Walton's :) 
And have ice cream at the five and dime!
Spark ice cream is the best!





One night we took the golf cart to the club for dinner!

And on Sunday after church we took them to Trevor's favorite place, Waffle House!
We spent some time at the club pool!

And got a sitter one night so that we could have an adults' nite out!
On Labor Day itself we learned that Ashley's hair finally fit in a ponytail again!
Played in the sprinklers!
Looked at the special book Papa made for us highlighting our time in AZ!  Such a special book, we look at it often!  Or at least Mama - she loves memories!
We made cowboy steaks one night!
They were so yummy that the boys didn't want to waste one bite!
Our play system got installed!
Kids LOVED it!
Not pictured was the craziness we experienced trying to assemble our new patio dining table and chairs.  AYE CARAMBA!!!!  Papa John was persistent though and we surprised Brian with it 'almost' done.  He finished it up and we got to enjoy a few dinners outside.  It was heavenly!!!  Thankful for Papa and Grandma coming to visit.  7 days is just never enough time but we enjoyed showing them our new life and having special time together!!  XOXO
