Grandma Jo 's Visit

We just said goodbye to Joan this week. She came to stay with us for 10 days which probably seemed like a long time for her but was a very short trip for Collin and Sydney. We wish she lived much, much closer.

The kids especially LOVED sleeping in and catching the bus on the weekdays instead of having to go to the sitters so early with Mom and Dad. They loved coming home from school and having Grandma there ready to play games with them all night. And they loved making endless origami projects (literally a whole ream of paper's worth) and bead jewelry and going out to eat almost every night with her. She is amazing! Thanks for everything, Joan. We miss you!

We got to celebrated her birthday with her a couple of early. Aren't they precious!!!
