Grandma and Papa in NC

We have been lucky enough to have many visitors come visit us now that we are closer to family, so it didn't take long for my parents to take some time off of work and head our way for a long weekend. It's always nice to have family around and show them around your new hometown and the kids especially love it because they get beyond spoiled by them!

When Grandma and Papa visit they bring new toys! Finding Dory!!

Had to start off vacation off right! With some margaritas!!!


First stop of showing of NC to the grandparents was to Joe Gibbs racing. 




Papa and McKenna inspecting Denny's car

Logan was so happy to score a lug nut

Second stop was to Hendrick Motorsports, my favorite spot!! 





We were lucky enough to get the last slot for a tour of JR motorsports. It was so cool to go back into the garage area and see all the guys working on the cars. We even got to see the cars that were getting ready for the upcoming races and even the cars that were just getting back from the last race. I got to say it was pretty interesting to see what all goes into getting the cars ready for race day. 






 To end my parents vacation here in NC, mom and I made it a craft afternoon while the kids and papa napped!

Happy 4th

Happy 4th of July from our family to yours!






We got the awesome opportunity this morning to tour the presidential helicopter. He will be in town in a couple days, so they flew the helicopter down to Charlotte before he arrives.

Trouble

It's Friday afternoon, McKaila is upstairs relaxing and McKenna is taking a nap. Courtney was able to cut his day short due to having very long days at the beginning of the week, so he was able to enjoy an afternoon coffee break with me, which I always enjoy. 

As coffee is being made, McKenna wakes up and we just tell McKenna to go relax with her sister. They normally are watching a movie or watching something on Disney, but I guess on this day they decided they were bored with that, and McKaila decided to start doing her artwork on McKenna. 

Yes, you read that right. McKaila drew all over McKenna. Thankfully, they were washable markers, and thank goodness Courtney decided to go upstairs and check on them or else who knows what McKenna would have looked like.
