Grandma Visits!

I was so lucky to have my mom come and visit just after Rachel was born. She was here for 10 days, and it was a sad day when she left!

I felt like we did a lot when she was here, and took a lot of pictures, but now looking back I realize I don't have many of mom. Mostly just beautiful pictures Mom took with her camera of the girls. 

So here are a few of things we did.

Cook and bake. Grandma was great letting Macy help, and kept us all well fed!

Resurrect Rockband. We haven't played this in years. Macy loved playing the drums and guitar. She also loved dancing around while we played (not pictured, the many nights of Grandma and Macy dancing, Macy still misses her partner). Rachel would just snooze peacefully while we played. 

Take Macy to preschool. This picture was on pajama day. Rachel of course stayed home. Macy loved having Grandma drop her off and pick her up, and I loved the break.

Take pictures of Rachel. Here she is at two weeks.

 We also went to visit Santa, saw a Nativity display at the church, went to Rachel's two week checkup, went shopping, had delicious breakfast at Cora's Restaurant, visited Chris at work, went to the library, went on a date to see the Harry Potter exhibit at the Telus World of Science (Chris and I, mom babysat), and celebrated American Thanksgiving.

Thank you again, and again for coming! 

Grandma made cookie dough with Macy while she was here, and we baked them after she left. We still have some in our freezer. We were spoiled.
