Grandma is here!!!

Yea for Grandma's!  My mom got here Wednesday night.  It's so good to have her here!


Tuesday I did a big grocery shop, bought this to try...

Added some chocolate chips for my own delight...

Simply dEEEEElish!  Love this easy pumpkin bread!  I made muffins yesterday morning!  Tastes like fall.

Q made this cute sign down in our basement, where gma will be staying.  She's so thoughtful.  She has decided to stop taking gymnastics, shocker.  She didn't want to go Wednesday so I had her do chores to work off the money that went into that lesson she was missing.  She really would've done w/o 'working it off', she's a good helper/worker.

 

We stayed up late visiting on Wednesday.  Love just having her here, can't explain it, just feels like it's filling a little hole in my heart.

 

 

Yesterday was A.MA.ZING!!!  DIED at how nice it was!  We took the kids to preschool then went to institute where we talked about apostleship.  We picked up my little spiders...

 

... then headed home.  Gma took care of the boys while Molly and I went on a 20 mile bike ride!  It was glorious!  LOVED being on my bike, it's been several weeks.  My legs were aching by the end, sign that I'm not working out enough!!!  The sun was warm, the leaves crunched under our tires, we laughed and talked, explored... sounds like a first date right???  Kidding.  Love that I have a cycling buddy and oh so glad yesterday was so amazing!

 

The kids played outside in the leaves, hung from the tree. Mom and I visited on the porch, took bitty snoozers, it was so relaxing. In fact I said to her Thursdays are usually so busy, because I'm trying to get my stuff done, kids stuff done, dance done, all before dance. Yesterday I wasn't doing any of my stuff, I was relaxing. It was quite lovely!!



 

This weather of course won't last, but man yesterday was a nice day!
