Nonna and Grandpa Visit - Part 2

Frank's folks came by train from Chicago to visit for the week. It was great to see them! Nonna, the girls, and I kept busy while FJ was at work making all kinds of Halloween treats. We made a Halloween gingerbread house and some candy corn cookies as well. A highlight was nonna and grandpa joining Zoe for her ballet class on Friday. She loved to have them there and grandpa especially loved seeing his little ballerina in action. We also celebrated FJ's birthday, Frank and his dad got to the Corrales winery, and we took a short trip to Santa Fe. They were also here for Jenna's big move into a toddler bed. She did great, and to our relief never once climbed out during naptime or bedtime! We were happy to visit with some of Frank's cousins the last weekend his folks were in town. Frank's cousins were in town for the Balloon Fiesta, but unfortunately Albuquerque had some strangle weather that weekend and the entire Balloon Fiesta got cancelled for the weekend. I felt so bad for them! But we did get a wonderful visit in Saturday night. It was a great week, and the girls just loved having nonna and grandpa here! They were very sad to see them go (they keep reminding me how much they miss nonna and grandpa), but we are hoping that we can all get together again for Christmas this year.
