Swimming at the Scera Pool
Chuck E. Cheese--a tradition whenever my parents come to visit
Skee Ball was a favorite with all--it's so addicting!
One of the best parts of their visit was a little getaway my mom and I took. We left the homefront about 3:00 p.m. on Friday, went to get pedicures (with rhinestones, of course--this is girls night out!), ate out at Wingers, chatted and watched TV at our hotel (love the Hampton), and spent Saturday shopping at Gardner Village and IKEA. I surprised my mom with a tea party at Gardner Village and it was so much fun. My mom's a big fan of herbal tea so I knew she'd love it. I loved having her all to myself for a full 24 hours.
Playing with Aunt Ali. The kids just love playing with her.
Wienie and marshmallow roast up Provo Canyon (where we saw my old neighbor and friend, Tiffany--so crazy!)
My sweet Aunt Lisa. I love how both her head and Rachel's head are tilted to the same side--so cute.
Crazy spaghetti dinner. Have you ever done one of these? They're a blast. You just eat spaghetti with a weird utensil instead of a fork. Rachel didn't really get into it (probably because she doesn't like spaghetti), but Emma loved it. And watching my hubby eat the messiest meal on the planet with beaters was so worth it.
My mom and sister are going home tomorrow. And I will miss them so much! My kids really loved having time with them, and so did I! Tonight as we were saying our goodbyes, Emma started crying and saying how much she wants them to stay. It just broke my heart. We love you mom and Alexandra!

K I'm so gonna have to try that spaghetti thing. It was so fun to see you up the canyon. Looks like you had a lot of fun, glad your mom could come.
p.s. How did you like the tea party?
We loved the tea party, Tiffany! Thanks so much for giving me the idea! My mom just kept saying what a fun idea it was. We decided we should do it again with all the girls in the family the next time she comes out here
You have the best Mom! Hooray for Grandma's!
