My mama came for a quick 24-hour trip. She arrived yesterday early afternoon and we just put her on the plane a few hours ago. It was quick, but fruitful. She came to see her older sister, who is suffering from some heart problems. We enjoyed the loveliest afternoon yesterday visiting her. Some of my mom's other siblings also came to visit yesterday and we had a great time talking about all manner of things and eating a yummy meal. I'm so glad my mom got to see her sister. After the visit, my little family got to spend some time with her. The kids were beyond excited to have a houseguest overnight (people don't typically stay with us because of our tiny house) and made my mom feel like a queen--making up her bed, bringing her goodies, and creating all sorts of pictures for her. It was great. They especially loved hearing her stories and songs at bedtime. Grandparents are just great! My kids adore theirs (and this includes Marian and Allen too!!).
This morning we headed up to the Children's Garden at Thanksgiving Point to play and then had a good lunch at the deli there.
Rachel was being a stinker and decided to pout instead of smile. Kinda funny in the picture, though.
It was a super fun day and we were sad to see her go, but we will see her again in about a month. We love you so much Granby!
