Thanks Mom!

Grandma Kathy came to stay with us for 3 weeks to visit and to watch our kids while we were gone. And as usual it went by way too fast, and my kids wish they could replace me with her. ;) Having her here was such a big help.

I got to go into Jayna's preschool to help out one day. It looks like she's punching me in the stomach, but she's just really excited.

We played cooties a few times, it's one of the kid's favourites right now.

We had a little ice cream party the night before Gibb and I left on our trip.

While we were gone my mom did the usual routine with the kids.
She also took them to a Winter Festival with bouncy castles, games, and the worst face painting ever? Jayna insisted on being a pony even though the lady told her she didn't really do ponies, so this is what she ended up with.

Is it just me or does Jayna look way older than 4 here.
Playing at the indoor playground one day.

Jayna saw cheerleaders for the first time at a Keyano Huskies basketball game a few weeks ago and now she wants to be a cheerleader when she grows up.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

We can't wait to have Grandma Kathy back again this summer for an even longer visit. Maybe we should start making the countdown chain now!
