Papa and Gma came in for the weekend and I'll tell ya...They were here for it!! I gave them the schedule of the weekend the week before to make sure they were up for it and they sure were! Between cousins sleepover, Drew's games, Ellie's soccer game, Luke's tournament up in Clio, Ellie's girl day, Cosbeys hanging at their hotel to swim, late night dinner at Ram's Horn, Drew and Ellie staying the night there with them, church on Sunday am, and finishing the weekend with a trip up to Clio to cheer on Luke...Papa and Gma are the best!! We are so, SO grateful for them.
