Lots of Fun With Grandma Kathy

Our last week in Arizona rolled by quickly we spent much of the time playing with Grandma!

Went headed to the park:

How many Grandma's do you know that dig in the sand?

We "helped" garden:

We "helped" wash the produce from the garden:

We tearfully (at least my Mom and I) read a Hallmark recordable book that Grandma put together so the boys can hear her voice while reading their Twinkle Star story at home:

The boys still love the book.

We were fed snacks and milk and brought every toy our little boy hearts desired too!

We enjoyed sitting on the porch with everyone one last time:

And we enjoyed Grandma at the airport:

I for one wasn't complaining about the extra help through security!

Thanks Mom.

My phone broke while I was at Sky Harbor in Phoenix. I frantically tried sending a text to Brad when they predicted we'd be an hour early because I knew he was in the clinic and couldn't track the flight. By some miracle the text sent just after they asked me to put away my phone. Phew.

The flight back went even better than the flight out (no transfers!). Except for the end. Will didn't fall asleep until we landed. He doesn't have the best track record for keeping it together when he is tired. The airport was a bit of a nightmare.

Because of another small miracle Brad was able to pick us up. He wouldn't have been there early but his patient cancelled. Double phew. I was thrilled he was waiting at the baggage claim because it wasn't too fun trying to walk through the airport with a screaming kid and I wasn't excited about the idea of waiting with a screaming kid while trying to pick up baggage.

William kept on throwing his fit (even though I was sure he'd be excited to see his Dad) and Brad got the kids in the car while I collected our too many bags. I was happy to see Brad and very glad to see that the snow piles and melted to a much more reasonable amount!
