Week With My Parents

My parents flew into DC on a red eye Saturday night but hung out in DC until Tuesday because my dad had meetings and my mom was sight seeing.  Tuesday we met up for lunch in Tyson's Corner, it was snowing, again...
My mom got the twins these cute ball puzzles, they LOVED them and figured them out super fast...

The finished product...

Grandma and Tyce love to do puzzles and color together...
 
Brody always gets LOTS of love when my parents are here...
My mom and I made 11 bottles of strawberry jam, yummmmy...
 
Not many grandpas would squeeze themselves into the tiny backseat but Grandpa Barraclough is one of a kind  :)
My parents took the twins out to lunch one day (they chose Taco Bell, much to my mom's distaste.  In fact, to quote her, "Jenn...there was a LINE!  People actually LINE UP to eat there!")  Hahaha.  Tyce chose Pizza Hut...
 
One morning I came home from the gym to my mom making me homemade waffles, scrambled eggs, and cutting up strawberries for me.  Yes, she did that every day while I lived at home but I did NOT appreciate it then!  Now, it makes my day  :)  
Ok, confession time...I ate about 14 popcorn balls in two days...I was addicted...
 The boys riding their bikes with the neighbor friends Adam and Jhed...
 Playing football with Grandpa and riding bikes...

 Saturday we headed to the mall to see the Easter Bunny...
 Ride the train...
 And the carousel...
That night we got a sitter and went to PF Changs.  It was delicious and so relaxing!!!
 This morning they had to leave, always a sad sad time...
We had a great week and I feel so blessed my parents come out as often as they do.  The good news is...I will see them again in two weeks when we head to Utah!!!  LOVE YOU MOM AND DAD!!!
