A few weeks ago Trevor's mom came to town. We had pretty much been looking forward to her visit since we moved to Arizona. I had a list of crafty projects I wanted to her help me with, Trevor was looking forward to her famous sugar cookies, and Kirra just wanted her Nana time. It was definitely a visit that went by way to fast. The first night when we picked her up from the airport Kirra saw her getting into her car and gave her a very funny look. Then her first words to Nana were, "where Papa?" haha. She thought this was going to be a two for one deal. After her initial disappointment about no papa, She was very excited to have Nana. I had a Young Women's meeting that night so Trev got some quality alone time with his mom. The next day was Valentines day. We spent the morning making delicious V-day cookies which Kirra thought was very fun. Kirra followed Nana everywhere and pretty much demanded that she play with her anytime she wasn't doing other things. Then we went to a delicious Thai restaurant (our new favorite) with Trevor's uncle Doug and aunt Melece for lunch. I was soo full after lunch and just wanted a nap but we promised Kirra we would go to the choo choo park. It is a beautiful park that has tons of duck ponds, playgrounds, and of course a choo choo train you can ride. Kirra had been asking to go there all week but we were waiting for Nana. Unfortunately I forgot that the train only runs on the weekend. Luckily we still had the ducks and the playground to entertain her. We played for a while then headed home. Trevor had something up his sleeve for V-day. He started cooking dinner which I thought would be for all three of us but instead it was just a special dinner for his mom so that we could go out on a date (first one since we moved). We went to an indian food restaurant that was delicious but Indian, Thai, and sugar cookies all in one day are a very bad idea. Needless to say I was sick for the rest of the night. That night we watched "Here comes the Boom"(My new favorite movie). We laughed so hard that it hurt. Then the next day Sherrie and I did some shopping while Trevor went on a bike ride. We picked up some stuff for the many crafts I needed help with. Then Trevor took us up to a few different lookout spots on the mountain which were beautiful. I love where we live. We hurried home to get ready for a night at Dougs of delicious pizza. Trevor took me four wheeling in the desert at night. I am not sure if I liked it. It was pretty scary. Then We went home and Sherrie and I sewed until 12:30am. We knew we had to stop when I sewed the bottom half of Kirra's dress to the top half. In the morning we woke up and finished some sewing. Then Sherrie helped me to put together a picture mural for my wall. My walls have been so bare since we moved here and I really hate it. We also sewed some pillows for my couch. Then we went back to the train park so Kirra could ride the train with her Nana. She was in heaven. Then we did a little shopping before Trev had to leave for a priesthood session of conference. Sherrie and I drove to a mall not too far from us and it was amazing. A huge outdoor mall with lots of activities. Then we hurried home to get Trevor and head to dinner. We were celebrating Trevor's acceptance to Nursing School even though at the time it wasn't official. We came home and sewed some more and then the next day we had a short conference at church and headed to Doug's house for Sunday dinner. It was so fun but sad because from there we had to take Nana to the airport. We all decided that the visit was not long enough. We are anxiously awaiting her next visit.
