Erin and Jacob's Visit

It was great having Erin and Jacob here for a week.
Allison had a joint birthday party for Colin and Jacob. Jacob turned 2 on May 2nd and Colin was 1 on May 12th.
We got in a shopping excursion and ate out at Spaghetti Works.
Allison also brought Makenna and Colin down to spend a couple of nights so the kids could get some playing time together.
I even got an unexpected day with Erin and Jacob when their flight was cancelled.
My only regret was not being able to give Erin more rest time - I was a tad bit under the weather and didn't have much energy to help her out...
Can't wait to see them again in August!!!

Happy 82nd Mom

I took my mom out to eat yesterday to celebrate her 82nd birthday (April 27th). It was a nice outing capped off with turtle cheesecake - which she would have eaten first, given she doesn't usually do lunch and has a sweet tooth. I gave her a Jeopardy/Wheel of Fortune dvd game to play on her computer. Her comment - "I will never get off the computer now..."
