A Visit from Grandma and Grandpa

We recently had the privilege of hosting Nathan's parents and youngest brother for a week-long visit that was such a delight!  They came in town to meet Josiah, preach a Bible conference, and spend time with our family.  While they were here, Nathan's dad also ended up spending four solid days helping Nathan fix up a "new-to-us" van that we recently purchased.  His mom was a great help with meal preparation and clean-up, and Uncle Noah was Isaac's best friend while they were here!  I didn't take any pictures while they were here except for a few of Josiah smiling.  All these photos are courtesy of Mom Britton. :)

Grandma snuggles with Josiah.

He was cooing and smiling for her.

Grandpa put him right to sleep!

Isaac and his new buddy, Uncle Noah.

Riding his rocking horse before church.

At the park with Grandma!

Playing the music bars.

A little Nathan-look-alike in this picture!

Wading in the Rio Grande River.

It was definitely on the chilly side!

But Isaac didn't care...

he was having the time of his life throwing rocks!

After the four-day Bible conference at church, we took a two-day trip to Colorado Springs in the "new" van.

Isaac's first taste of a WodFamChocSod (World Famous Chocolate Soda) at Whit's End/Focus On The Family.  He loved it!

Playing in the toddler area.

Having fun being a giraffe at the Garden of the Gods.

Tour of the Olympic Training Center.

These are the only pictures I managed to take of that time.  Josiah had just recently started smiling - and I really wanted to capture it on camera!
