A Visit from the Folks

Last weekend my parents came for a visit! We always get a lot of projects done when they come. This last weekend included: taking out ugly juniper bushes, trimming overgrown garden, hanging countless pictures, getting Nora's 6 month pictures taken, making over 100 baby meals, and baking enough chocolate chip cookies for Paul's breakfasts to last him at least 2 weeks! (Yes, Paul eats chocolate chip cookies for breakfast, but they have oatmeal in them so that is how he justifies it!)

Here are a few pictures of our weekend.
Nora's 6 month pictures will be a later post.

The picture shelves behind the guys were built by Paul and Ethan, painted by Paul and Cathryn, and hung by Paul and Steve (my dad)! They thought the shelves would be better served as a glorified hat rack or cup holder. I think not!

Max, waiting for a free handout!

Thank you mom and dad for all your hard work and for the lovely visit!

    Cathryn, We had such a nice time at your home. I love seeing the pictures of our adventures... I actually think Nora is exceptional! What a sweet baby. Do you think I might be biased? Surely not. I think you might try those yummy frozen green beans at Trader Joe's. They're so sweet and tender; just steam them and buzz in the food processor. I think Nora would love them. Mama
