Grandma, Briahna, and Mackenzie visit!

We had such a wonderful time with Grandma, Briahna and Mackenzie on their two week visit. We got to do some really fun things. We spent five days in London, went to the beach a few times, visited some other really great places, did some shopping, and just had fun hanging out. The boys loved being around Mackenzie and Briahna and acting silly.  We had a ton of pictures!
