Oma's visit.

My mom came and stayed with us for a week.  It was a lot of fun.  We went to Como Zoo and Conservatory, the County Fair, and just enjoyed being together.  I got to go birthday shopping with my mom and no kids.  It was a treat for me we found some cute clothes and it was nice to just feel like a teenager and walk through the mall with my mom. 

The kids really bonded with their Omi.  They all were sad when she left.  Alex has already decided that our neighbors should move so Oma can live next door.   We are counting down the days till we go to Utah and see everyone.

Thanks for coming mom!  We love you.
