This morning Heidi got a call from her parents. They wondered if it would be OK to stop by for a visit. The reality of heading to the MTC in a month is setting in and they wanted to see the family. Heidi got to talking plans and it was decided that we could do better than a simple visit with us. Heidi made plans for pizza and rootbeer floats at our house and Matt and Heather and families were invited. We decided that it was to celebrate Grammie and Grandpa Mangum's Anniversary that happened Wednesday and their revised mission call to the (correct me if I'm wrong) Washington DC south mission. Somewhat surprisingly everyone was able to make it to the short notice party.
Peter found a good friend in his cousin Alex. Even though Alex is 4 and Peter is not yet 2 they had a blast going up and down the stairs and taking turns hugging a stuffed dog. Heidi and I appreciated how gentle Alex was with Peter. I've noticed that is not always the case when little boys get to play with a boy who is smaller than they are used to.
On the whole it was a fun event. I think that Grammie and Grandpa Mangum felt loved that their three kids in town were willing to drop everything and come hang out with them.
Happy anniversary Grammie and Granpa Mangum ! Glad that Peter had fun with a friend
