Shannon's Visit

We had a great time with Stacie, Patrick, Matthew and Andrew. They were in the area for one of Matthew's soccer tournaments in Kalamazoo, MI and decided to come a couple days early to see us. We are so happy they did. We had a lot of fun together and made some good memories. One of them being when we randomly decided that Stacie would cut the girls' hair. We had been in the pool talking about how the chlorine was turning their hair green, when they decided they needed it cut off immediately. Stacie volunteered to cut it although admitted she didn't have much experience. We decided to be spontaneous and the girls ended up with two adorable haircuts. Kaylee got about 5 inches cut off and Kianna around 3 inches. Great job Aunt Stacie!

Another memory, was our trip to our favorite ice cream shop, The Spotted Cow. Unfortunately, that will forever be a memorable moment in a not so pleasant way. The day before they arrived, Trace got a stomach bug and started having diarrhea. He was a trooper and kept up with all we did. However, potty training and diarrhea do not go well together. We had just ordered our ice cream and handed Trace his, when we notice that underneath him was a liquid puddle of yuckiness. I'll spare you the rest of the details. Our poor little guy wasn't feeling too well, which unfortunately meant that we weren't able to travel to see Matthew play in his soccer tournament. That was a bummer, but we had a great visit regardless!
