A Visit from Oma & Papa

This week we were blessed with a visit from Oma and Papa! They finally got to see our new home and experience us within it (amid a new intestinal sickness and lots of home-looking errands). There were lots of games (including Leia's favorite shown here: Alpha-Bug Soup!) and book-reading and wii-fitting and general playing. Unfortunately, the one thing Oma wanted to do (tromp around in the woods) she never got to do with us. : ( Errands always seemed to get in the way (as well as the cold).

Oma even got to participate in our Noah's Ark game (a favorite of Annie's). This involves reading two short books about Noah's Ark and then loading the real Noah's Ark up with all the animals to the following song (repeated over and over again for each boy and girl animal): "I'm a little boy rhino going to the ark. I'm going to the ark because I obeyed God. Doot, doot, doot-doot-doot, doo-doo-doo-doo-doot." Ha!
