Are those Raccoon hats real?????

After much persuasion my Mom was able to talk my dad (AKA big baby who can't live without my Mom) into letting her stay after Easter. So, I got to have my Mom here for our everyday life. I loved it. I realize how much I miss having her here to go shopping (since I hate to shop), to go to movies and just to talk to in person. The boys and I drove her home on Thursday and Aliya got to stay and spend some quality time with her Daddy. The drive to Lehi is not all that exciting, but we had a good laugh at a gas station in Beaver. Here are the boys in some raccoon hats they were selling. I have seen hats like these in movies, but I actually have never seen one in person. It was pretty fun to have the boys try them on. And NO we didn't buy them.

Here's a cute picture of my Granters in Papa's glasses.

My Mom was sick the entire time she was here. She was a trooper though cause she didn't let it get in the way of enjoying the trip. On Saturday I woke up feeling sick to my stomach. I got to drive all the way home feeling like I was going to throw up. That's always fun. Oh and I forgot anything good to listen to. I had my choice of eighties/cheesy nineties or country. Since I have to be in a depressed, I just broke up with my boyfriend or pregnant sort of mood to listen to country, I opted for the cheesy rock. Which surprisingly I sort of enjoyed listening to music from footloose and Mannequin. I usually really enjoy the time I drive back and forth to my parents. The kids sit in the back and watch a movie and I get time to myself. Thanks to Shanna for watching Aliya after school. She had a lot of fun. Thanks to my Dad for letting my Mom stay. He doesn't owe me a birthday present this year. Thanks to my Mom. I love having her here. I wish it could be all the time.
