Grandma Ehlen came for a visit...





In early January, my mom was able to come down to Madison for a whole week. It was so nice to have her here to take care of the boys for me and to help with the cooking and cleaning. She is definatly the best mom ever. I wish she'd move in with us! I think she played more games of Candyland that week than she cares to remember, but what fun Johnny had with her during the day. On Saturday morning, we went to Olbrich Gardens to get a feel of the tropics. THen on late Saturday afternoon, Mom and I went to the Madison Overture Center to see a play of "The Diary of Anne Frank." It was a wonderful production based on the famous book. We both had a great time. We are hoping that our winter weather will be over soon and that she can come for another visit soon.

Ohhh, I loved these pictures. Olivia enjoyed the flowers as much as me. I have a bad case of the winter blahs but these pictures were a day brightener. I can't wait for spring! Yes, our Mom is the BEST!
