Visit from Grandma and Grandpa Fullmer


Grandma and Grandpa Fullmer came to see us for the weekend last week! It was so much fun to see them and Eric absolutely loved all the attention. We are so grateful for them (and my parents) and all they do for us. Here are some of the fun things we did: 

We went to Holy Hill, a huge basilica that is located at the highest elevation point in Wisconsin. It was a beautiful church, a perfect day, and such a pretty view of all the fall colors when you got to the top tower (though I don't think Pa was all that excited about being in the top tower). Sadly, Tanner couldn't come on our outings because he had exams and had to study, but we still had a lot of fun.
Eric was comfortably carried by Pa the whole excursion, I love him on his shoulders.

 I love that face!
 He was hamming it up to all the other people visiting. It was really windy at the top, as you can see.
 He loved grabbing the bars. See all the pretty fall colors outside?

 He just looks huge in this picture, it's like carrying a bowling ball, he's so heavy!




 The church from the ground.
 Contemplating the meaning of life....
 Inside the church, it was beautiful.



 Eric's first oreo, thanks to Damin (Grandma) and Pa. :) I'm pretty sure most of it ended up on his face rather than in his mouth.

 Pa loved sneaking Eric sips of Diet Coke....
 Sitting in front of the pumpkins at the apple orchard
 "Another face cutout thing?? You guys, this is so humiliating!" Eric hated this part as you can see, so naturally, we had to take pictures. 
 The little lip came out.
 Pa bought him a horse ride, it was the funniest, cutest thing ever. Eric didn't know what to make of it.

"What the heck am I sitting on?"
 "Why is it moving?"

 Look at that little cowboy staring off into the sunset..
 Reaching his limit....


 And done..if you look closely you see he was starting to cry.
 Dinner at Kopp's, yum!
 What a lucky boy to have such awesome grandparents!
 Love this one!
 We had so much fun, it went by too fast. Thanks for coming to visit us, we hope they come again soon!
