My mom came down for a visit and was here for 10 days. So much fun to get to spend a good chunk of time with family. She flew in late at night on Friday, so Saturday morning really started her visit. Thankfully, even though I didn't have time during the week to post, I did take a lot of pictures and will share some highlights from her stay in the next couple of days.
We started day one with some pancakes. Yum. This is a demonstration on how to get the most out of your left-over syrup.
After a quick change of clothes and an attempt to wipe the syrup out of her hair with a washrag, we were off to the farmers market for some fruit. We got so much food! Everything looks so beautiful and tasty when you are at the market. I usually bring $20 in cash and just stop shopping when it's gone. Well, I tried that, but when I ran out of money, my mom just opened her wallet. I didn't stop her either because it all looked so tasty. As a result, we had more fruit and veggies than any of us could reasonably eat in a week. We put in a good effort though! I am still eating the peaches (almost 2 whole weeks later and they are still fantastic!)
Maddie had run out of room in her tummy for all of the delicious samples and by this time was ready to go home for a nap. And I was ready to go home and figure out how all of our food was going to fit into our fridge... always a fun chore.
