Padres in Town!

Broc's parents came out to visit this past week and it was so fun! I loved having them here and felt so sad when they left! His mom is one of the most loving and kind people I know so having her in our home for about a week was so refreshing and just what I needed! We wanted to make sure that we made their trip worth it so we packed each day with fun activities! Most of all I just loved spending time with them and showing them the little place we have come to love and call home! We got to introduce them to friends, take them to our ward and show them some of our favorite places in the DC area! It was so great that I am already plotting and planning their next trip!

Cherry Blossoms were in full bloom! They picked the perfect week to come! We enjoyed walking the Tidal Basin together!

Took them to Maggianos...our favorite Italian restaurant for their 30th Wedding Anniversary!

Went on a tour of the Naval Academy and enjoyed seeing all the beautiful buildings!

Mom said Abby would be in heaven here because all the men in uniform! Makes you thankful for all the hard work to keep our country free!

Even the magnolia trees were in full bloom! It was wonderful!

We loved showing them around Annapolis and they enjoyed it too! Nice water view!

Then we took them to Mt. Vernon and explored the old stomping grounds of George Washington!

We told them that when they got home they would need a vacation from their vacation but it was so worth every moment!

After introducing one of our good friends to mom and dad she told me that I had the BEST in-laws and that I was blessed! I could not agree more! Mom and dad Buttars are a huge blessing in my life and I thank my Heavenly Father for them each and every day! Thanks for the visit and thanks for brightening our week! We miss you both already!
