My mom flew in last week to help me out during my recovery for my wisdom teeth extraction. I am SO glad she was able to come out and spend time with us. My teeth ended up being a breeze, but having her here was a comfort nonetheless. She left today and the house just feels so empty!!
Thursday I made plans for us to do something fun before the dreaded teeth pulling! We drove over to Ft Worth and spent the day at the Botanical Gardens. I knew how much my mom loves the outdoors and flowers and all that jazz...so that was the perfect place to go. We FINALLY got there after being stuck for an hour in traffic (so ridiculous, and we never even knew what had happened!) and had a nice picnic lunch.

We walked around the grounds, the girls LOVE it there...especially the water parts and the turtles. It's such a beautiful place and the weather was absolutely perfect. And being able to walk and talk with my momma while the girls ran amuck, was just bliss.
It's that time of year again! And the leaves are quickly changing and falling...the girls had a blast playing in them.
It was a perfect way to start off our mini-vacation with Gramma. We topped the night off with steak at Texas Roadhouse! Yum.We miss her SO much already and it's only been a few hours!
More to come...

How fun! Your Mom is so cute! We still haven't been to the Botanical Gardens yet, but it looks so beautiful there, maybe we will go in the spring when all the flowers are blooming. :)
Ok, we must really live close to one another...Botanical Gardens are the best! What movie theater are you seeing New Moon in? Email me if saying here is giving away too much personal info...amygirly at gmail dot com
Looks like fun!! I'm glad she was able to be there for you!
How fun. I haven't been to the Botanical Gardens in ages but the last time was for an outdoor concert and it was wonderful.
Not only are your girls cuties, but I just have to tell you that your mom is awfully cute as well. She looks so much like you. I'm so glad she's there with you!
What BEAUTIFUL little girls!!! (Hi Jeanine.... I sure love your daughter.)
