Madi and Uncle Brian playing air hockey at McDonalds. Brian did a fantastic job of entertaining the girls all week and even made them a house out of a big box, complete with blankets, lighting and music! :

I think the girls favorite thing at Grandpa and Grandma's was their cat- Dexter! They followed him every where and never gave him a moment of peace!
It rained a lot while we where there, but we did have a few days of wonderful, warm sunshine. We played at the park, in the backyard and even had lunch on the patio! See those flowers in the background? Really?! Flowers in January?!! Its been a long times since Ive seen that! And not a snowflake in sight! :):
It was great being able to visit Grandma Sytsma almost everyday:
We went to my sister's class one afternoon (she teaches 1st grade). Madi was in heaven! She kept calling Kari, "Auntie Kari My Teacher", and literally beamed with pride when Kari put a smiley face on her paper like the other kids!:
