Kara & Garf Visit

We had a wonderful weekend with Aunt Kara and Grandpa Garf coming to visit. (Kara, thanks for making the long trip in and giving up time with your kids...it was great having you here!)

Kara is an expert when it comes to kids and that is well documented here...Lucas enjoyed a couple hour nap with her on Friday morning. It was a beautiful spring day.

While Lucas was napping Garf and Erin stained some wood for the deck. Nathan's big project right now is making the deck safe for kids to play on; the person who built the deck didn't have the posts close enough together so we need to correct the mistake. Garf and Nathan got over half way done with the deck reno...thanks for all your help Garf!

Lucas was entertaining Garf and Kara with his big open eyes, smiles, and sounds.

We worked Garf so hard that he needed a nice long nap outside.

With the deck being worked on the only place we could eat outside was on the driveway. Yes folks, we ate dinner on the driveway...nothing but high class at the Thomas house. Nathan compensated by cooking a great dinner...Surf & Turf Germantown Hills style. :)

On Saturday we headed to the Treamont Turkey Festival. The turkey legs are always a tasty treat...Kara agrees.

Campbell is still very excited to see baby "Wookiss" every time we get together. She puts out her arms out to hold him any time he gets close. While it might look like Lucas is bigger than Campbell that is not yet the case but it won't take very long for him to surpass her as at a month old he is already half her weight...and she'll be 2 years old the beginning of September.

Garf and two of his kids (Nathan and Kara) at the Festival. Hopefully there will be something fun we can take Kristi to when she comes to visit.

Here again Aunt Kara worked her magic and got Lucas down for a nap. I also don't think Kara minded holding a baby for a few hours.

Grandpa and grandson hanging out...if we could only get their naps on the same cycle. :)
