It's Always Fun at Nana's.

Mom called me several weeks ago and mentioned that she would like it if we came to visit her when nothing was going on and when she wouldn't have a bunch of other company. It would give her time to just be with her grandsons one on one, or one on two I suppose. I know she loves it when she gets that alone time with one family at a time. So we decided to go up for a few days just before Conference weekend and let Ryan have some much needed quiet study time before he took another CPA exam. What a good time we had. Max took his little bike up and enjoyed riding up and down Nana's lane, we went for a great 4 mile walk, we took the boys up to campus and to the beautiful gardens, and we got to hang out with Jim's family for an afternoon and let the boys play with their cousins. Max was of course not going to leave Jim's house without driving his tractor mow. Thanks Jim for obliging his obsession. We bought the boys some little basketballs at the bookstore and oh, the spectacle they made walking across campus. They were a real hit with all the students. The best part was just getting to relax and be with Mom. We actually got to watch a movie one night, which we always want to do when we are up there, but which rarely happens with all the craziness going on. We stayed up until 2 o'clock in the morning working on Family History. I got to listen to the first session of conference with her. It was so wonderful to just have that alone time with Mom. Thanks for the invite Mom! Can't wait to do it again.
