The girls were spoiled! Grandpa gave them WAAAAAYYYYY too much candy...but that is G'pa for you. Luckily it was only a few days of major sugar overload. We skipped naps for 3 whole days (which is unheard of in the Jones household) and Quinnlyn even got to have sleepovers with G'ma (except for the last night cuz she got into trouble). The girls got away with so much in those 3 days. Basically NO discipline whatsoever. I hope G & G don't think we let our kids do anything they want :). Quinnlyn even started to believe that she no longer had parents to obey. We are working on getting her back up to par....although I don't think we were 'up to par' even before the visit.
Four years ago, none of this would have flown with me (skipping naps...candy for every meal...& every snack). But I have relaxed a bit (okay, maybe a lot) & just sat back & went with the flow. After all...every kid needs a little spoiling from G & G from time to time right? And we all certainly enjoyed it.
Grandma brought us a bunch of food storage & pumpkins from her garden...green beans, tomatoes, corn, jelly's, squash, & onions. She puts a lot of work into growing & bottling all this stuff & we are glad she lets us share with her.
We were so sad to see them leave, but we are so happy they took time to come see us.
Thanks for the visit G & G Jones.

SWEET! That's a LONG drive from them! Glad you guys got to get spoiled!
I'm sure that was soooooo fun. I really can't imagine how hard it is to rarely see family. Although every time someone leaves I go into depression mode for a few days and then I get out of it. So sometimes it seems that it might be easier on my emotions if I only saw them every once in a while... who knows... I'm such a bawl baby these days. (Couldn't have anything to do with being pregnant, right?) Anyways, glad you got to see your family!!!!
