hip hip horray for the Grandparents!

as you may or may not know, Jon has been in Toronto for the last week and will not be returning home until Saturday. To split some of the time up, we headed out and went to Gramma and Opas for a very long weekend. Although i am doing pretty well by myself with the kids, the help from my mom and dad was priceless. They are so great with Maya and Eli and totally take charge just when i need it most. They are great!

We had a fun weekend, Maya was surprised with a TV in "her" room at Gramma and Opas which she was totally thrilled with! She got to watch movies and even watch a movie before bed!

Sunday we went to church and grabbed some groceries Eli was very stern that woman are not good enough drivers, and refused to sit in the passenger seat. I am glad Maya is a little easy going and didn't mind to share. We headed home and Opa and Maya did some baking! what a special treat! Here Maya and Opa are getting ready to bake! Maya was such a big helper! :)

Maya was super proud of her muffins!

Monday morning we decided to head home again. What a rude awakening to open the front door and see this!! GASP!

Maya was able to help Gramma in her restaurant making soup, setting tables and chatting Grammas ear off. She loves to be able to sit on the counter and help her Gramma make soup.

Thanks again mom and dad for all your help this weekend. we sure enjoyed ourselves and cant wait to see you again real soon!!
