What a fun week!

We had a great week - first of all my Mother in law came from Virginia to visit us on Wednesday, and Chichi came on Friday for conference. We really enjoyed having them - along with a lot of good food and company! Jack absolutely adored his grandma. She claimed that she wouldn't mind if she had to bribe him to love her - but there was absolutely no need. He couldn't get enough of her! They played a lot of fun games and got a kick out of chichi's funny cooing noises! I had fun doing another painting for Jack's bedroom. Conference was wonderful, there was a lot of good counsel, but my favorite talk was Elder Wirthlin's talk - man he cracks me up - after listening to his talk - I still knew that life is to be taken seriously, but you can still laugh about things that would normally stress me out - just laugh, love life, and enjoy each moment! A huge thanks go grandma and chichi for staying with us, we love you!

Grandma and Jack were matching in a blue and brown outfit this day! It made for a super cute picture.

We went out to eat at macaroni grill after conference on Saturday - yum.

He met his cousin Anthony - and they had lots of fun together. Jack really needs a brother...maybe some day.

The painting for jack's room.
