Fun with Grandma!

Last week my Mom came down for a few days to visit.  We were so excited to have her come see us before she and my dad leave on a mission to the Philippines for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in May.  We had so much fun sharing with her some of our favorite things...especially because we had her all to ourselves! 

Molly woke up the morning after picking Grandma up from the airport, ran into my bedroom and asked,"Where Grandma go?"

"I think she's in her room sleeping." (as was I).  It was barely 7am so I had her get into my bed for a few minutes while I woke up.  What seemed like only a few minutes later she asked if Grandma was awake.  I checked the clock and it was almost 8 so I told her she could go check.

The next morning and every morning after Molly didn't bother checking with me before making a beeline into Grandma's room.  She'd take some books and they'd begin the day reading and talking together.  Molly loved her special time with Grandma!

Here are some of the other highlights from her visit:
 Bike riding - "a first in ages" for Grandma but she left wanting to buy herself a beach cruiser.

 We went to the zoo

 Molly had fun brushing the goats

Of course we found time to do some projects!

What a great visit! Thanks for coming Mom!!
