What a great weekend!!!

When my sister told me she was unsure about staying with Grandma overnight while Mom & Dad had a much deserved weekend away I offered to come up and stay too. This was the best thing I ever did! Not only did I see Shell, Chris & Jackson, I got to see my Grandma again!

Ever since Gram moved to Mom & Dad's house I have missed her tremendously!!! When I got to Mom and Dad's house Gram was sooo excited to see me. When we said our hello's and sat down in the house, Gram made me sit next to her in the oversized chair. She had her arm around me and her other hand on my knee the whole entire time. That did my heart some good that's for sure!

We had a lot of fun while I was there! I was able to give Jackson his presents, a dump truck and gas (a.k.a. diesel) pump, for his up coming birthday. He will be 2 years old on May 5th already! Time flies, right Shell!? The diesel comment I made was because when Jackson was asked about putting gas into his dump truck, he said it was diesel. That's my smart little nephew!!!

I drove up on Friday morning so I could see Mom & Dad before they left bright and early Saturday morning. That worked out really well as it was a beautiful day! Dad and I even went on a bike ride on the trail near their condo. A great way to work on the tan! :)

Anyway, I had a wonderful time with everyone. But, when it came time to leave I was near tears. It was a trip that I didn't want to end. I absolutely loved every minute of it! I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Thank you so much for driving up. Having you up here was indescribable. Next time stay longer and we can do some fun sight seeing!

I'm glad you could help Shell out (and M&D!). It was nice to do a webcam with you guys as well. When we move to AZ you'll have to get a webcam so we can see more of you & the fam!
