This weekend Grandma C came to see us - uh I mean came to see Eli & Cole! She says hi to Tim and I when she's here but it is full on play time with the boys when she comes to visit. She plays so much better than we do!
Grandma arrived Friday night before everyone's bed time and got some loving in before the boys went to sleep. Saturday morning, Tim & I took a trip, just the two of us, to Lowe's to pick up a few things for projects. During the day, we did some outside chores while Grandma took care of the boys. Tim finished moving the last of the mulch to Eli's swingset and I cleaned out Belle's dog run. After naps, we enjoyed some good outside time in the back yard. I made some bread and Grandma made country style steak for us for dinner - super yummy!! Sunday we went on a family walk when there was a break in the rain and then it poured rain almost all day. Tim & I then worked on (finally) getting all the Christmas boxes back in the attic. Grandma left at nap time after more play time. They had so much having her visit. And we enjoyed the extra hands and time to get some things done.
