When Papa Comes to Visit



Well, Papa has officially left the west. My dad came to visit all of his kids out west for his bi-annual trip and we personally got him for 10 whole days! Then we had to share him with his other kin. My little ones were pretty much the bummer-est about it. We did lots of things though like...


have nightly snuggle parties...

hold his hand on walks, refusing mommy....

show him our sweet ballet and tap moves at dance class...


share a cookie between classes...

did a space puzzle and then...

went to mission control (jk this is really the California Science Center)...

rode on a snow mobile...

left him with these goofballs so mommy and daddy could go on a date (and Papa got E to nap!)...

practiced our gymnastics beam routine...

took a photo with his namesake...

went to Universal Studios and attacked Scooby (although she has no idea who he is she chased him)...

took a photo with these Despicable ones...


and a couple of sisters...

acted super silly in Super Silly fun land...

went on rides with Papa (girls refused me)...

strolled through London square...
got to meet MAX (from the Grinch) before anybody!...

watched the Animal Actors show...

went on the Studio Tour (first time for the girls who were terrified)...

wore sweet glasses on the tour and saw a peek of the Hairspray Live set before filming...

introduced him to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter!...

and Mommy snuck in a photo too...

made him try butterbeer...

drank our weight in butterbeer...

relaxed on the swings...

went green (at the LA Zoo)...

made crazy shadows...

and took a holiday photo!


Miss you Papa! See you next year!
