Grandma and Grandpa Come For a Visit

Jeremy's parents came for a visit... finally. They wanted to come a year ago March for Jet's baby blessing, but it wasn't safe then. Now things are calming down and people are getting vaccinated and they were able to make the trip in May. Yay. I love Jeremy's parents.

They were here to congratulate Nichole for getting her driver's permit.

Before and After

 

They were here to go to Jr.'s last orchestra concert of the year and afterward when we had pie to celebrate for National Apple Pie Day on May 13. 

We didn't have any ice cream to go with our apple pie so Jr. drank some milk with his pie.

"It's like having pie and ice cream but sadder." 

May 13 was also National Fruit Cocktail Day but we had some of that with dinner the next night. We also had buttermilk biscuits with dinner since May 14 was National Buttermilk Biscuit Day.

Jr. let me know that Friday, May 14, was Fintastic Friday a.k.a. Give Sharks a Voice Day. How appropriate that Jet was wearing a shark outfit that Grandma and Grandpa gave him.

May 15 was International Day of Families. We certainly got family time in. Grandma and Grandpa took a drive up Provo Canyon to look at Bridal Veil Falls with the kids and me while Jeremy had his virtual writing group with the Provo Library.

After that they went with us to the Tulip Festival at Ashton Gardens at Thanksgiving Point.

We gave Nichole the camera for most of the time and were not disappointed.

Grandma and Grandpa spent time with us after church on Sunday when the kids made dinner. Lucky made BBQ pizza because May 16 was BBQ Day. Jr. prepared carrots. Jr. Jr. prepared bananas with honey. Since it was World Baking Day and National Sea Monkey Day, Nichole made Monkey Bread.

We had a really great time when Grandma and Grandpa came to visit. I'm so glad it worked out. I'm also glad they finally had a chance to meet Jet. He had fun with them as did the rest of us.
