A visit from the Hartzheim's

On April 20, 2019 Ragnar's parents, Hellmut and Ursula came to Texas for a visit. We always enjoy their company and were looking forward to their visit. The morning after they came was Easter Sunday and it was nice to spend a special holiday with them. The kids hunted for their baskets and found some eggs. We went to church and had a nice dinner and played games. It was a relaxing day.

 

Ursula was wonderful and played several hours of Hotel with the kids as they love the game. As the banker I retired after an hour and a half. That was long enough for me :) 

Monday the kids had off of school still from the Easter break and their dreams came true when their Oma and Opa took them to Chuck E Cheese and McDonalds!  

They loved it! 

Tuesday we went for a walk to the park and played lots of games. We did some shopping and hung out. 

On Wednesday we went to the Houston Rockets playoff game against the Utah Jazz.  

It was too close of a game, but the Rockets ended up winning and so we were glad to witness that!
Thursday we relaxed and played more games and they went shopping with Ragnar and out to dinner.

Friday Daphne was able to come in for Channing's baptism the next day and we went to the temple all together. It was a nice evening. 

Saturday they were able to witness Cavin playing soccer and Channing's baptism day!

I was so grateful they came to celebrate Channing's choice to become a member of the church.

Sunday Channing and Ragnar were brave and did a duet of "Choose Him Again" with Ragnar accompanying on the piano and Channing singing. It was beautiful.

On Monday while Deacon was at preschool we went down to Ragnar's office and went over to lunch.

We had a nice meal at Pappacitos. It was yummy and nice to have lunch with Ragnar.

The kids really enjoyed their visit and we are so grateful for their love and support. We know we are many miles, countries apart, but we are grateful for their constant influence and presence in our lives and especially our children's. Thank you for coming!
