Visit from Nana and Papa!

Nana and Papa came out from Atlanta to celebrate an early Christmas with us last weekend. We had a busy weekend, starting with a pizza dinner on Friday night. On Saturday, Matt, Nana and Papa took the boys to Nate's very first soccer class! After that, they all headed over to watch Simon in his new "big boy" gymnastics class. Both boys were great!

That afternoon we played around the house, and we even had a dance party.

We also exchanged gifts, much to Simon's delight! Both boys got some cute clothes, and Matt and I got some great gifts too. Simon was really excited to receive a super cool Batcave that he's been talking about, which prompted him asking to wear his Batman costume for the rest of the weekend.

Nate got a really cute set of wooden food that he can "cut" with a wooden knife, and he spent much of the afternoon immersed in that. Later that evening, the boys had their Christmas sensory bath in preparation for meeting Santa the next day!

On Sunday, we headed over to Swanson's Nursery to see Santa. The wait was pretty long, so we checked out the trains, reindeer, fish and cafe while we waited.

After all that waiting, it was our turn! Simon was thrilled to talk with Santa and tell him what he wanted for Christmas.

Nate? Well, he wasn't as thrilled. Ok, he was terrified.

After that, Nana and Matt took Simon to the movies during Nate's nap and of course Simon wore his Batman costume! We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing at home and capped off a fun weekend with a hectic but yummy dinner out.

Thanks for a wonderful visit and all of the great gifts, Nana and Papa, have a merry Christmas!
