JJ's visit pictures


We started our time with JJ on a Sunday, which was just after the 4th of July, we made our way up to Great Grandma & Grandpa's house for a wonderful but quick visit, we had made plans to check in on great Grandma Hicken , she had just had surgery on her wrists earlier that week, and we took a little dinner up to share. We also took a little time out to take a picture infront of the barn and let JJ check out the cows, he loved that. We then made our way down to Papa Mikes & Grandma Kitty's house for a short visit.




Monday was a quit day, I had to catch up on a lot a house work having been gone for a week and a half. JJ had a good time though, he played with Bo and Onyx, whom he had been missing desperatly and fortunatly JJ and I did make it to the park for some much needed playtime. That evening we took in a movie for JJ, he so loves Kung Fu Panda and although we had seen the movie, we knew it would be a hit with our little buddy.

Geepa and JJ made it a nightly ritual of playing in the hottub and we all know how much JJ loves the water or as he calls it now, the "O'nin"(JJneese for Ocean).

Grandma Kitty got to take JJ home on Tuesday and he stayed till Thursday, we missed JJ terribly but I am sure he had a wonderful time with everyone at the Niedert Home especially with "May-may"(JJneese for Mitchell).

Thursday after picking up JJ we went to the Living Aquarium and had a blast. I did get a picture of JJ petting the Stingrays but it's on Lindseys cell phone, sooo darn I can't post it, needless to say we had an awesome time with Aunt Kimmy, Sam, Morganne, Aunt Lindsey and Great Grandma Pack.


Friday was fun playing with Cousins at Great Grandma Packs house and we all got big laughs listening to JJ sing. I will post that footage below, it's pretty cute.

Saturday was Geepa-day and JJ hung out with him, they are truly best of buddies. I know Barrett wishes he had more opportunities to just hang with his little grandson, he misses not being able to just give Ashley a quik call to see if he can come by for a "JJ fix".
That evening Barrett and I took JJ to our friends Doug and Julie's and thier son Tyson was a big hit, JJ sooo loved Tyson and they enjoyed playing games on the nintendo together.


Sunday was quiet, we went to church and all took a very long and much needed nap. JJ then spent some time with his Aunt Kami for a few hours and later that evening we went to visit Papa Mikes & Grandma Kitty.

Fortunately we were also able to get in a quick visit in with some of JJ's favorite cousins Nelly, TJ and Collin late that night. I know JJ wishes he had had more time with Nelly he so loves her.

The picture below is at Grandma Kitty's house, JJ really enjoys climbing through the doggy door, what a character.

Monday was our last day and we spent the afternoon it playing with Cousins Sam and Morganne and that evening going out to dinner with Papa Mike and Grandma Kitty as well as Aunt Lindsey and her friend Lance.


It was hard to have to take him back home, We all so enjoyed having JJ around, he has the cutest little personality and has no problem, what so ever, at making us all laugh hysterically on a regular basis. I have to say that that little boy brightens my day immensely and I will have a very hard time not having him around.
We love his Mommy and Daddy for letting us enjoy him for so long and we know it was hard for them to have him gone for such a long time. Thank you Ashley and Johnny! We love you!
