Mom & Dad - Hosts extraordinaire!

Our visit with Mom and Dad was great. We've really missed having them around while they've been gone on their mission, and they were so sweet with all the plans they made for us, driving us around, feeding us, and pampering us however they could.


Dad took the boys down to the pool just about every morning before we'd head out for the day, and they'd stop by the office afterwards for a cookie. Ben was disappointed there weren't any oatmeal cookies, so Mom whipped up a batch for him one morning. She took the boys out a couple times to look for fireflies before bedtime, and they both would take the boys off my hands during our outings here and there to give me a break. Those little breaks were wonderful!



Whenever we had any downtime, Mom was always checking in with us, asking what she could do for us. We didn't have anything planned for our last day, but it's not for lack of her trying! We were content to just hang out and relax, but she and Dad would have gladly took us anywhere.

 

Mom and Dad have really enjoyed their mission work and time living in Michigan, and it was a treat for all of us to see where they've been living and for them to be able to share with us some of Michigan's gems.

Thanks again Mom and Dad for the wonderful visit! We loved our time with you and appreciate all the fun things you shared with us. We're looking forward to having you home in a few months!
