visits from friends and family

The week in review...Our good friends form Savannah came this way for a visit. Stella and their daughter, Gracie, are a month a part. So it's very cute to watch them play together. My family...Sister, Dad and 4 nieces came for a visit this past week. We had a full house and a great time. Dad and I painted very heavily for two straight days. Now the living room and foyer are done and look great. We managed to do other things as well, enjoying some time in downtown Greenville, swimming, shopping and such. The good-bye was made slightly easier knowing that I'll be flying home for a visit in Sept.

Stella with our friend Jesse(Gracie's Dad). She really likes sitting on his lap. Especially when he has snacks.

Stella and Gracie play with Gracie's Little People barn. She loved it so much. Stella's Aunt Laura got her one of her very own.

Stella gets a ride on Pagi's shoulders. She seems to be checking if he's still down there.

Stella with her cousins: Andrea, Kate, Lizzie and Mary. She had such a great time with them. They sure wore her out well each day and were so great to her.

Stella loved sitting on Kate's lap especially. Who knows why, but she crawled on her lap to hang out many times.

Here they're playing with another new toy from Aunt Laura. They had a good time together.
