I know. I've been absent. But it's with good excuse. My mom was in town. I love having her here, but it's always so hard to say goodbye. This time especially- I think somehow 2 or 3 days were stolen away from us & we're not sure where they went. We had a wonderful time. She is such an amazing woman. She just serves & serves and doesn't (seem to) get tired of it. I do NOT get that from her.
She made us breakfast, lunch and dinner every day and she made 400 buckeyes and I can't count how much fudge… she even managed to finish a few sewing projects for the kids.
On the Saturday she was here, James & Canyon ran in the Pasadena 5K. Well, Canyon ran in the 1 mile race for kids & James ran the 5K. We were so proud of Canyon! It was supposed to be a 1K (which is about 1/2 mile) but when we got there, they told us it was actually 1 mile! Canyon was SO excited to run- we couldn't believe how committed to it he was. He ran the whole thing and finished with a smile on his face. He earned a medal and a backpack and a hat. He was showing everyone- everywhere he went he wanted to take his medal. So SO proud of him!
Making Buckeyes with Grandma. Such a fun tradition. More to come…
