Grandma and Grandpa Come to Town

New Year's Day evening, my folks showed up!  They were planning to come earlier, but bad weather delayed them.  We did Christmas with them and then played with all the toys throughout the trip. We  also had a few adventures.

We played around the house.  Spencer learned how to play basketball and showed us his stuff.  SO cute!!!!!!!

Isabelle played lots and lots of duets with Grandma on the piano.  She is STILL talking about getting to play the piano with Grandma.  

One day we met my mom's parents and one of my cousins for lunch in Bountiful, and then visited my aunt and uncle for a bit.  I love getting together with family. It makes my heart happy. :) Mike's mom babysat the kids for me so it was an adults only trip.  It felt a little like a vacation. Haha!  On our way home after picking up the kids, we stopped in at Ikea, and had a bit of a disaster.  Kid care was full, and they were out of stock for what we went for.  By the end, the kids were done and it was exhausting.

We went to Thanksgiving Point one day and had fun at that museum.

Another day we went to the South Jordan Baskin for something, then we went to BYU to check out the Bean museum.  It was closed due to a power outage.  They told us to come back in 45 minutes. So we drove around and looked at how different BYU was.  Alot has changed!  Then we stopped at the creamery and mom and dad got us some BYU brownies and chocolate milk.  We all sat in the car together and had the yummy snack.  It was pretty funny, brownies and milk in a parking lot wasting time.  We tried again at the museum, but they still weren't open, so we gave up and went to the Orem Baskin and had ice cream (because yes, you need ice cream after a brownie and chocolate milk. Haha!).  We stopped to show my parent's the dealership on our way home.  Mike showed them around the place and then we headed for home. Such a random, but fun day,  My kids still talk about this day.  


So fun to have Grandma and Grandpa to come visit!  We love them and look forward to the next time.
