Grandma and Grandpa

The girls were so excited to have their Grandma and Grandpa Branch come stay for a week. I teach Brooklyn's primary class at church and before I start the lesson every week I ask the kids what fun and exciting thing they did that week. Brooklyn told us that Gma and Gpa were coming and it was so fun to see the excitement in her eyes!!

The day Troy and Jodi left my parents arrived. We love, love having visitors and were so happy that we had a whole two weeks with family here.

Grandpa was amazing as always and took the girls for a bike ride every day. He played games with them and entertained them even when I'm sure he was ready for a big long nap. My mom was so great and helped me so much with cleaning and cooking. I love my parents and only wish we could see them more!! I was so grateful to them for helping me out so much. They even took my girls to dance one day so I could go take pictures of a high school senior. I think I owe them big time for that one because not only did they have the girls for like 3 hours but they also got locked out of our house. Because no one was around to let them in they took the girls to pizza. They are awesome!!

On the girls preschool day's they each had a Thanksgiving feast. Miss Shirley told me that Brooklyn loved it so much that she ate to helpings of everything. They both counted m&m's and they both got to 100. Proud of them:). Granda came with me to pick up Brooklyn and Grandma came with me to pick up Nikell. They were so excited about that!!
