We were so lucky to get to spend the last few days with my mom and her husband, Dick. They are on the last leg of their 50 day road trip around the USA. Luckily, we were on their way home and we got a great visit in with them! They arrived early enough to visit, help with homework and have dinner with us on Thursday evening. While Sade and I went to choir rehearsal, they stayed and played games with the boys. They brought us all something from the Hershey factory in Hershey, PA. Mmm-Mmm good!
Saturday was such a long, fun day that after we ate, Ayodele fell asleep watching a movie with Kayode.
Sunday we all went to church. Ayodele, Kayode and I went to both services. The children's choir performed and the kids participating in Pioneer Club were introduced. After church we went back to the Condo where Grandma and Grandpa were staying and took the kids swimming while our Thanksgiving Dinner baked in the oven. Derek and Sade played volleyball in the pool almost the whole time we were there. 
We finally made the kids get out of the pool when I started freezing (it was about 70 degrees at the pool) and had to start wrapping towels around myself to stay warm. It's a good thing, though, because by the time we got back into the condo, the turkey was done! We finished up our feast and sat down to a wonderful family Thanksgiving! It's a little early, but we wanted to celebrate the holiday with family!
Monday, Kayode and I hung out with Grandma and Dick at the condo until it was time to pick up the kids. They got to see Sade rehearse the last few minutes of her musical at school, too! We went back to the condo for dinner and our last goodbyes. We had such a wonderful time! It's always so hard to see family leave! Thank you for everything! We can't wait to see you both again!
Friday we hung out at our place while the big kids were at school. We picked up Ayodele and Sade from school and then took Ayodele & Kayode to their last swim lesson of the season. After swimming we went home and ate tacos, played more games and watched a movie.
Saturday we met mom and Dick at Circus Circus. We watched Derek and Sade on the Disc'O and then went our separate ways for a while so everyone could go on the rides they wanted to. If you look carefully, you can see Derek and Sade on the top of the ride.
Ayodele and Kayode had fun going on the not-so-fast and flippy rides. They went on the Hopper over and over again!
