Gramma Craigs Visit 4

Red Butte Gardens had a free day for Arbor Day. The weather was not cooperating and we got snowed on. We were still able to see a lot of the gardens and we all got free trees out of it.

My mom was freezing in the snow

My favorite part of moms visit was the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point.
The weather was perfect and we all had a blast.
My girlfriend and her kids came with us. We must have walked about 87 miles all over the gardens.

Levis favorite park was rolling down the big hill. They had a perfect rolling hill and Levi would had like to stay there all day and roll

While my mom was here I had her show me how to roast a turkey, so we had a thanksgiving dinner and it was sooooo good.
My mom wanted to help and watch the boys color eggs so we all got to make an even bigger mess and color eggs one more time.

My mom came for a visit. It was so fun to have her here. We packed a lot of activities into the week she was here.
We went to the Museum of Art at BYU and saw the Carl Bloch painting of Christ. We left Kyle with Daddy so it was just my mom, Levi and I. Levi did a great job of being a big boy and he was so fascinated by the pictures of Jesus Christ. I was really impressed with how Levi did.
We found an exhibit in another part of the museum called "Healing 1". We all had fun with it. It was an interactive exhibit that you would walk on and the color would move out of the way as to not get stepped on.

Grandma

This morning Grandma Madsen was taken to the hospital. After a bunch of tests and to make a long story short, she had a clot in her heart that moved into her brain and they have her in the ICU on some blood thinning medicin to try and dissolve the clot and if it wont dissovle with the meds than they will need to go in surgliclly and remove it. Shes doing really good with all that can be expected and we were able to see her. It was pretty scarey there for a while now the only thing to worry about is if the clot gets lose and moves to another part of the brain and that would be a real bad thing. So now all we can do is wait.

On a happier note I got to go play board games with my girlfriends tonight. We had a Moms Night In. It was a lot of fun. I am so gald that I went. I am so lucky to have friends. I some times look at myself and wonder where the shy girl that never talked or never had any frineds went but I like who I have become.

After the games I went grocey shopping. It was like 10 pm. I dont think that I have ever been grocey shopping with out Levi. It was kind of nice to be able to focus soley on what I was doing. I night start shopping at midnight all of the time. The only bad part was that all the checkers had gone home so I had to take my huge chart that was over flowing and go thru the self check out. The self check out is really nice when you have about 10 things but with a buch of things it probally took about 30 mintues to get through all of the stuff. The nice staff membere was helping me so it could have been worse.

Well I am off to bed.
