opa and oma are here ..take three

Ok, feeling a lot better, but still can't do some fun stuff .. luckily aran is up for carnival rides, oma is up for hot tubbing and opa is up for lilja on his lap .and both of them are playing "monkey in the middle" every night with lilja before bed. One more week and I will be getting the go ahead for normal snuggles, running and playing.. I hope. We are having such a great time with opa and oma here. This last week we visited the county fair and house sat for the beautiful ranch and dog sat Leon, Barney and Maynard .

Went to the mall in farmington today that had some bouncy house to play in.. lilja just jumped and jumped and slid..

Monkey in the middle is the new game before bed .. they get very competitive 

Over their head or through their legs..all tricks are being used by a 5 year old  

Very serious face to master riding her bike 

Look at her little face  . So serious !! But she got it !! Still needs to practise starting and stopping a bit.. but she got it !!

Daddy on his new bike !

The county fair was fun, a very Amari can barbeque cook off was a highlight ..

Lilja got het thrill fir speed from her daddy .  She loved this rocket .. 

Snuggles with oma and the red balloon

Boring !! Apparently

Trying to get a glimpse of the car derby.. 

Lilja loves animals !! Not afraid to come in and pet a sweet little calf

This ride went higher and higher .. also faster and faster 

House sitting and dog sitting has it's perks.. one of them being the hit tub.. Oma and lilja had a blast .. wish I could have joined them 

Another perk, new books , for older kids.. and time with opa 

Starting to look like a kindergartener?

And fresh eggs each morning ..

Love this running girl in motion 

Going to get the eggs, love that my parents still hold hands after 50 years of marriage !!
