Grandma comes to visit!

My mom was able to come to Utah for several days because of Becky having Jake.  It was so great to have her come!   We met her out at the airport on Saturday, June 2nd and took her to the hospital to meet Jake.


Greeting Sophia





My mom brought Jack a hat from Turkey and had gotten herself a Turkish rug - makes for a cute Aladdin scene!


One of the funnest times of her visit was the quilt shop hop that the girls went on.  We had Emily & her friend Kate babysit all 8 kids and we went to 3 quilt stores.  The shop hop theme this year was:

Those Were The Days.

Each store picked an old TV show, decorated for it and made it super fun!  We went to Mormon Handicraft (Little House on the Prairie), Elaine's (M*A*S*H), Quilts Etc. (Cheers) and Pine Needles (Happy Days).   I had such a great time and really wished that we could have had the entire day (plus a couple more) to go to more of the stores.

We finished with lunch at Gardner Village at Archibald's!  What a great way to spend the last day of my mom's visit!

The shop hop was so fun! I wish Mom could have stayed another 12 days. That was the best having her home.
