The best housekeepers around!






Russ had to go to Washington DC for 4 weeks in Jan-Feb so my wonderful, retired parents came to help hold down the fort for 3 weeks. As you can see they loved on our sweet little Mason, a lot. My Dad would take him over to the kitchen table and stand him up or just play with him. I had to take pictures of them together b/c he was so sweet and tender with him. My Mom was always caring for and loving them too. So besides their time devoted to my 6 kiddos they also cleaned my house everyday! We went for walks and then my Dad would make us a "green drink." It is everything healthy that is green thrown in the "Vitamix" and it's pretty good, but very healthy. Even the stickers are healthy. :)
We also tried out a ton of new recipes. Russ as you know doesn't like to eat creative food, or most food in general, so my way of getting through him being gone was cooking. My parents are being very healthy and so we tried out a ton of healthy meals that they could eat too. It was very fun!
On top of all of that, they watched 5 of the kids, while we went away for a night. It was to celebrate Valentines/Anniversary. (We went to Killen's Steakhouse. It was delicious!! Then we went to a nice place downtown in Houston. In the morn we ate at this yummy place for breakfast.)
Anyway, I can never repay them for the time and love that they showed me and my children. They are one of my best friends, so wonderful and I am so thankful for them! Love you both so much!! Thank you!
