Papa Jeep's Visit

Mark's dad (famously known by the boys as "Papa Jeep" for the cool white Jeep he drives) was able to fly down for a quick weekend trip to visit the family, see our new house, and of course, meet his new grandson and birthday-sharer, Grant. The visit was really short, and we wish he could have stayed longer, but we had a ton of fun with him while he was here. For the boys, the best part was the highly anticipated visit to the neighborhood pool. Throw in a trip to the donut store, fun up at Market Street, and a movie night, and they just absolutely loved "when Papa Jeep stayed at our house"!!!

Getting ready to jump into the kiddie end!
Rudy LOVES the water. He's definitely the braver swimmer of the two big boys.
One, two, three...jump!
Grant and I watched from the side while everyone else swam for nearly two hours. It was very cloudy and on the verge or raining the whole time which was a blessing for us! No glaring sun! And a treat for the boys too...we were some of the only people there and stayed until the rain finally came.
Rudy and Papa Jeep in the waterfall. Obviously neither of them was having a good time!
Cheese! Can you see the resemblance? We think Rudy looks so much like the Asmussen side of the family.
Hanging out...talking about life and the weather...
Hugs for Papa Jeep up at Market Street
Yum, yum! A little ice cream cone!
I wanted a picture of all the Asmussen boys but Rudy was entering full meltdown and would not participate and Grant was crashed in the sling.
Movie Night!!! The boys love piling up on a palate and were excited to have baby Grant with them for a few minutes too!
Mr. Clean!
