Camp Grandma and Grandpa

In case you've been wondering why we haven't posted in awhile, well we have been busy living kid free!

Last Saturday my parents drove up to pick up the kids for a week at Camp Grandma and Grandpa x2. We don't know all of the sugar-laden, multi-McDonald-trip details, but here are some pictures curtesy of Grandpa L...

They stopped at my Aunt's farm on the ride home, where both girls got to ride a donkey. They got to feed birds at the zoo...

They went on the Jelly Belly factory tour...
They then went to Grandma and Grandpa M's house where they went on the train to Chicago for a fun day trip, and got to play with one of their cousins.

Then, M&M Dad and I joined them the following weekend. I went with my parents and the girls to the 4th of July parade while M&M Dad helped prepare for Grandma and Grandpa M's big move. The girls loved the parade, especially looking for Auntie and Uncle's recycling project.

They had a great time (and so did we). Too bad it ended with Jr. Princess having a mysterious swollen eye that totally freaked me out. It did not respond to Benadryl, so she went to the doctor when we got home and she already looks better after 24 hours with an antibiotic. Now we are just crossing our fingers that she isn't allergic to this antibiotic (like the last two). The good news - at least I'm ready for potential hives with a leftover half-bottle of Benadryl.
