It's Always Fun For Everyone When Grandma Comes

-
 
We were soooo lucky to have Grandma Phillips come for a 2 week visit this month.  We had so much fun spending time with our beloved Grandma P.  The boys couldn't get enough kisses, Maeve had to show her Grandma off to every person she met at church and around town, Owen learned that he had to keep a close eye on Grandma or she just might put his toy away when he isn't looking, and Rebekah loved being around Grandma and soaking up all that precious love that Grandma has for her grandchildren.  I just loved having 2 weeks of my mom all to myself.  I learned so much from her, felt so loved, got a lot of chores around the house done, and had my house cleaned to within an inch of it's life with our new Norwex cloths.  :D  When we took Grandma to the airport to return home to Utah there were many long faces in our home.  We would keep Grandma at our house forever if we could.  We love you Grandma Phillips thanks for coming Texas!  Thank you Grandpa Phillips for letting us have her for 2 whole weeks!  And Thank You Aunt Liz and Uncle Thomas for sending her!  I have the best family.  :) 

And yes, the weather here in Southeast Texas is still warm enough that we can get some fun outdoor water fun in on a nice Saturday afternoon.  I love Texas Octobers! :)

It's been a bit of a warm and dry winter, until our latest epic snow storm!!  We didn't get as much snow as high elevations, but I'm happy with 9 inches in 3 days.  Diana is all in when it comes to playing in the snow, the little boys have been busy as beavers digging snow forts, and Maeve has found that digging out snow paths with her friend Lilly is a great way to "chill" during the afternoon.  :D  The big kids have been busy helping Dustin and I keep the street shoveled out.  Dustin wakes up early every morning to use my Dad's snow plow to clear all of the sidewalks on our street  before the kids have to walk to school. The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preference for warm

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
