Spring Time with Ma

It had been 8 months since we had seen Maw. When mom comes in the Spring, it's appropriately timed. "New life". Her visit is something we all look forward to.
This is a synopsis of the visit...
Tuesday night: Met Maw at the SLC airport
Weds: Kids played hookie, made band bracelets and necklaces; we went to the Muppet's Movie, we had Maw's chilli, and then Mom and I went to the Hale to see Big River.
Thursday: After school treats, Mom's fried chicken legs (showing Jenna the hopes), hi-lighted mom's hair, up with Gage with croup
Friday: JCWs, Shopping with the boys, play-dough, Peruvian
Saturday: Chuck a Rama, shopping, lightening bugs, fire pit
Sunday: Mom woke up with the crazy eye, Taco soup, Breakfast for dinner, Call the Midwife
Monday: Date day with mom,  Cafe Rio, Menchies, Guitars, Yahtzee

Muppet's Most Wanted

Hale Center theater for Big River

Mom is known fro her good cooking. She showed Jenna how to do some things.

Mom was brave. I high-lighted her hair. It went blonde looking soooo fast. The package said about 40 minutes, and after 10 it looked blonde. After I washed her out, it was not as blonde as it was golden. She liked it.

This is a JCW; somehow we were the profile picture for a few days on JCW's facebok page.

If you play play-dough with Gage and Trevor they will love you forever. If you are Maw and play play-dough with them, they will love it even more!

Mom was easy to get to laugh today. :D

We made some lightening bugs from a pinterest idea. It was a mild success.

As Zac said: "working on a large house"!

The fire pit. We roasted hotdogs and smores.
