A Grand Visit

We were blessed to have Grand-maman visit during a special week of celebrations. Jolie turned 5 years old and Belle graduated from Kindergarten! It's always fun to have her here and spending time with our family since she lives so far away but especially fun to celebrate these important milestones with her. She always asks for a project when she comes, which is super helpful, so this time she painted my mudroom/laundry room and my main garage wall that was hideous. I LOVE the bright new laundry room - it may even make me excited to do more laundry! Well, maybe. And I'm thrilled to pull into a garage that looks a little less 'garagee' and more put together. It's the little things!

I promise she didn't work the entire visit - we did have a fun family night cheering in the Saints at their new stadium!

Jolie and I went for a nature walk with Grand-maman at Minnehaha Falls, which was very peaceful and beautiful.

Of course, all sweet Jolie wanted to do was dip her toes in the water. She just can't resist kicking off her shoes wherever we go!
