Uncle Michael Comes to Visit

We got to spend the past week with Uncle Michael!

In our house, he basically achieved rockstar status the moment he arrived. All the kids were constantly competing for his attention, just wanting to soak up as much Uncle Michael time as they could. We got to enjoy some fun D.C. adventures {National Zoo and National Mall}, but we also got to enjoy time around home just playing!

Watching basketball with Uncle Michael

We got to show Uncle Michael our water table {which the kiddos were really excited to show him}, and then they played some basketball with him. That mostly consisted of Uncle Michael blocking shots and the kiddos giggling uncontrollably :)

On Tuesday, it rained all day, so it was a good time to hang home. The kiddos enjoyed all-day fun with Uncle Michael, including keeping him captive to reading books, dressing up, watching a movie, and playing games!

On Uncle Michael's last full day, we made the scenic drive out on the Snickersville Turnpike to get ice cream at the Bluemont General Store. It was a good way to show Michael the beautiful countryside, and the kids were just excited to eat ice cream!

We took an evening walk around the neighborhood to show Uncle Michael around and wrap up a super fun week together. Of course, Aiden was right there next to Uncle Michael, his permanent walking buddy :)

And every night, Uncle Michael read our Bible story :)

We had such a fun week with Uncle Michael! The kiddos were sad to see him go, but we are so glad he was able to come visit. We look forward to him coming back to Virginia :)
