Mumsie's Visit



I know - it's been a long time since I blogged.

I thought I'd post some pics from our visit from Mumsie. She stayed with us for a little more then a week at the end of May. It was fun times!! Our time was filled with things such as trips to the pool/park and the Children's Museum. Chris and I got out on a nice date together - we got to enjoy a nice quiet dinner together. I had a nice break from cooking dinner. Did I mention before that she's a fantastic gourmet cook?! We certainly had some great family time with her.

As with all family visits the hard part is when they leave. We all miss them so much!
