Aunt Jenny Comes to Visit!!

My best friend, and Amara's Godmother, came to visit on Saturday. It was wonderful! I wasn't feeling well and it was so cold, we simply laid around on the couch for hours catching up or played with the kids. A big part of the trip was some quality time with Mara too. While Alaric was on his date with Nana and Grandpa, Aunt Jenny got lots of uninterupted Mara time!

Here they both are just smitten with each other!

Then Aunt Jenny gave Mara her Christmas gifts! She was in heaven. She got her very own train from Thomas the Train but it was a GIRL! Rosie. She is purple and pink and Amara loves her.

She also got a beautiful blue and white dress too! Thanks Aunt Jenny!

Lots of giggling ( from the kids and us), playing, and just catching up! It was so great to let the toys pile up, the laundry lay un finished and drain a bottle of wine with a best friend!Alaric had pooped in the potty so we had a poopy party that night. We went to McDonalds for ice cream cones and sundaes and Aunt Jenny gave a few small gifts to Al too.

When it was time to say goodbye to Aunt Jenny, she kissed Mar over the railing.

Then she kissed her under the railing. The did it over and over and over- atleast 20 times. I'm not sure who liked it more- Amara or Aunt Jenny! What fun!
