Short-stay house guests

Last month my mom came to visit... for about 24 hours.  (She was coming to Colorado for my cousin's mission home coming, and tagged on a visit to us.)  My husband thought it was hilarious when I told him she'd only be here a little more than a day. When Latinos 'visit family' you measure the length of a trip by weeks or months, not hours!


In a short amount of time we enjoyed nice weather and watched the kids' soccer lesson... and I got to sneak away to watch Beauty and the Beast by myself!  It was awesome.

Then a few weeks later my dad decided to out-do her (or should I say "under-do"?) -- he stayed 6 hours!  (He was on a business trip and planned a layover in Denver so he could come visit.)  He helped entertain my kids during General Conference so I got more out of it.


Though the visits were short, we appreciated them taking the time to stop in.  This week we are looking forward to my sister and brother-in-law coming for a longer visit.  (48 hours. ha)
