Joey was so excited to show Grammy and Pas her new house and her own room and her own toys! First thing when she would wake up, "I wanna see Pas!" Too cute!
We went for a walk down to the river. This is after we spent one whole day at the mall doing all my moms Christmas shopping! Which I of course loved!
I took some portraits of my parents! (more on my photo blog) They were good sports and I am going to give my siblings prints for Christmas gifts! (no surprise there, sorry!)
It was really nice and warm as we were walking down to the river and then when we were there the weather got worse and worse.
We got soaking wet and had to hide in the trees, but it broke and we were able to make it back home!
Not with out a few more pictures at the end!
Joey loves to find sticks and throw them in the river. Pa's of course was really good at it!
Don't worry my mom didn't carry her the whole way back to our place but close! The day they got here Joey kept saying to me "mama, I want grammy carry jojo" I guess she got what she wanted!
We discovered holly berries on our way back and this is Joey about to eat one... She thought it was really funny to see our reaction so she kept faking for a while!
Kev and I actually had to speak in church today. Nerve racking I know. OUr talks were on gratitude, fitting because I couldn't be more thankful for my parents. I think Heavenly Father knew it was going to be hard for me to see them for such a short about of time so asking me to think about gratitude made it easier for me to just be thankful they came and not be sad they weren't staying for longer.. Not that I didn't try to get my mom to change her ticket, I did. But they came they saw and now they are headed to Seattle. Gotta love em!! Thanks for coming!! I loved every minute of it!!

How fun to have fall family pics! I'm jealous.
That is nice that your parents were able to come out so quickly-- I was looking to see some pictures of you? Are you showing yet? It didn't look like it.
Jill she looks just like you. You are so lucky to have both your parents come and visit you. How special. There's no way in hell my dad would come and visit me unless it was on his way to a vacation...in the bahamas! hehe!
...and your talks were GREAT by the way! :)
