To conclude our series of blogs surrounding Sienna's birth, we wanted to share one last post. The last weekend that Heather's mom stayed with us, the weekend of Sienna's blessing, both Heather's dad and my parents came into town. It was wonderful having both sets of parents visiting for a few days.
On the Monday after Sienna's blessing, we went mini golfing at a this great place near our house. The entire place was done up in an Indiana Jones theme. It's probably one of the most impressive mini golf courses I've seen. Every hole had a unique feature that was triggered by movement. Whether it be a kimono dragon rearing its head, a wild bore rushing out of his hiding place, tropical frogs spitting water, or an alligator rushing toward the hole, every hole had a fun surprise. On more than one occasion, Elli would run ahead, inadvertently trip the surprise, and then come running back all scared. After a few holes, she would only go forward holding one of our hands. It was pretty comical. Here are some pics of it.
Sienna and Elli loved having their grandparents in town. It was fun to see them interact and enjoy each other. Heather and I really appreciated having them here, too. In particular, Heather's mom had been here from Sienna's birth up through her blessing. She was amazing in her help, getting up most mornings to help with Elli while Heather and I tried to recover from being up all night with Sienna. We're so grateful to have such thoughtful parents.
