Week with Grandma

After spending a few weeks chasing my tail and feeling like I was running in circles...I decided to change things up a bit.  

I called my mom and asked for help because

I was feeling stressed about work, trying to finish my classes, and studying for the real estate exam all at once.  

Max is still working away in the garage as well.  

My mom agreed to come and stay for a week to help out.  I took the entire week of vacation from work and signed up to take my real estate exam.  

The week turned out to be a complete success.  We all had a blast with mom in town. We got to play with the kids a ton and I passed all of my classes as well as my final exams for real estate.  

Here are some pics of my study breaks....

Savannah loves swinging.  

Chance is quite the helper.  He loves to push Savannah in the swing and make her laugh.  

Chance's favorite at the park is still the slide. 

He even convinced Grandma to slide with him. 

We got another big snow storm and decided to try sledding on Ruby Hill again.  

I only crashed once and Chance didn't seem to mind.  

He just loves being pulled in that little sled.  

Mom and Savannah did not participate in the downhill sledding.  

The just stayed at the top and took selfies. 

I have no idea how this little falling snow thing  in the picture below works.  Sometimes after I upload the pictures to the blog, it just picks a picture and decides tog give it a snow globe effect???  It's so bizarre, but I guess I kind of like it. 

Because Savannah kept crawling into the tube we took her to a part of the hill with no vertical and  pushed her around in the snow.  

She loved it and had the sweetest giggles.  

Chance is looking back at Savannah in this picture and smiling about how much she is laughing from being pushed in the sled. 

I'm so grateful that my mom was willing to come and help out for the week.  

We got a lot done and had a great time too.  Thanks again mom!
