Mom/Nana's wonderful visit!

Mom came and stayed with us for a few days in June. While she was here she stayed in the kids room with them, was never without William in her arms and stayed up late chatting with me.  Bobby and Joyce followed her around like puppies.  The anthem of her stay was " Where's Nana, Where's Nana?" We kept ourselves busy with a day at Alum Rock Park swinging in swings.  A day down at my parents' house where the kids played on the slip and slide and Mom and my Mom made a lovely witch's brew. click here to see what its all about.  Saturday was a beautiful day at Happy Hollow Park and Zoo.  Where we picnicked and enjoyed the animals and rides.  Saturday night Mom Robert, William and I went to dinner and then to see "For Greater Glory" Robert and I couldn't remember the last movie we saw a movie in the theaters.  We like to have time together on our date nights but were very glad to have seen this one.  This movie puts us in mind that in the span of time these happenings were not long ago and are more like current events then history, also to live the Faith God has so generously given us.  We were so blessed to have her to ourselves for a little while.  Thank you Mom for not only being the best mom and person in the whole world, but also for being an amazing real to life example of motherhood, womanhood and wifehood. We love you.

So this was pretty funny.  A s you can see Robert, as any good father would have done, is recording Bobby on the roller coaster while laughing hysterically.  This ride was a bit past Bobby's comfort level.  He was on the verge of crying the whole ride.  He held it together very well and was just terribly dazed for about half an hour after.  I am working on getting the video off Robert's phone.

A ride that is more Bobby's speed.

Mom helped Grandma Ruth clean out her craft room. She found some paints and brought them back and we had a little painting party one evening.

Best way to clean off paint.
