Our First Visitors

We had a super fun visit from Steen's family this past week. We showed them around the area and kept busy while they were here. We started the visit off with Steen's birthday celebrations! We also went hiking to Falling Water State Park. Of course we spent lots of time at the beach playing in the water and shell hunting. We ate lots of yummy food here at home and at a variety of restaurants. We had a great time and are already missing our visitors. Enjoy all the pics:

Katie and the birthday boy!
(Notice the banner in the back ground? That's my latest sewing project!)

Steen was spoiled with gifts from everyone!

Cake and ice cream time. Yummy!
Smok'n Butts BBQ was crazy delicious. We love living in the BBQ country.

Here's everyone at the falls. It was cool, but it didn't compare to anything we are used to in the gorge.
Natalie loved all the attention from her grandparents and Uncle Anton.

Here's our beach. We never get tired of looking at this view!

We got lucky and happened to see a huge group of sting rays from up on the pier.


Here's the kids having a great time playing in the sand.



Here's the kids with the St. Andrews pier in the background.

Noting like a Florida sunset.
Me and the kids at sunset one night.

Here's the fam in front of our house.
Thanks for visiting us Jensens. We had a great time with you guys. Come back soon!

What a fun visit for Steen's family. I'm jealous of their fun time with you and your yummy desserts (that cake looked really tastey), your cool crafts, and that warm sunny weather! Oh, and your house is beautiful. And those kiddos are so adorable. Yep, I'm jealous : ).

Tell Steen he needs to get his shirt confusion under control... It's one or the other...
