Sam and Lesi's visit

What a week! Sam and Lesi flew in for the long weekend on Thursday and Zoe and I went to pick them up at the Grand Rapids airport. We drove back and grabbed breakfast at a local restaurant. It was fun and Lesi really liked seeing Zoe. After that we ran to Meijer and I got the first taste of what it would be like to have a zero and a two year old... no thanks! Lesi was tired after flying and had several temper tantrums while at the store. Plus Zoe was tired and fussy trying to stay awake so she wouldn't miss anything. It was wonderful getting out of there and back home where both girls fell asleep! Sam and I enjoyed catching up during nap time! After the girls woke up we had a quick dinner and then we were off to feed the ducks at MSU and get some ice-cream from Tasty Twist (the Dairy Store was already closed on campus). Tons of fun, but it was still really hot out!
On Friday we got up and headed out to Impression 5, a children's museum here in Lansing. The building was crazy hot, so we spent most of our time in the smaller room for kids 0-4 years old. Lesi had a blast playing and Zoe took her morning nap :) We went home and the girls both napped. We stayed in for the rest of the evening and played with the girls!
Saturday we went shopping because a trip with Sam is never complete without some retail therapy. Our plan was a few stores, but we made it to two :) At least we got to shop! Then we ran back to Meijer to pick up some yummy things to make chimichangas, cookies, mee hoon, and spring rolls. We had a blast cooking and freezing all the yummy meals for Kent and I!
Sunday we ran to the zoo in the morning and then out to lunch at Traverse Pie Company. It was a lot of fun! The best part was Lesi watching the lions. We told her if she roared at them they would roar back... she roared and a few tries later they roared back by chance. She looks back at Sam and I, said "Oops" and then jumped into Sam's arms saying "They are going to kill me"! It was so funny. Everyone around us erupted into laughter. The poor cat just had a hair ball, but Lesi thought she was going to get eaten! After a fun few days, David came to pick them up and they were on their way up north for a few more days. Thanks for all the fun Sam and Lesi! Until our next adventure!
