Mom's Visit in April

My wonderful Mother came to visit us in April. She came to help me get some cleaning and packing done, which was much appreciated! We had fun just being together and of course Tytyn is always THRILLED when Grandma comes! We went on walks, went to the park, did some packing and cleaning, and just visited. It was fun to have her with us, thanks for coming Mom!


About a month a half to go at this point!

We went to a reptile show at the library and my wonderful Mother volunteered me to help. I didn't know what I would be helping with, but to my "delight" I was able to help hold  this HUGE snake! Fortunately I'm not that scared or grossed out by snakes, but if it would have been a tarantula I would have ran out of the room screaming!

This monster was HEAVY!!! I didn't feel very good about lifting that much weight being as pregnant as I was so I slacked off a little and let the other 3 do most of the lifting (which they didn't know about.) I was just feeling grateful that I wasn't on one of the ends. The snakes head was going a little crazy and as you can see on the other end that little boy was a little worried that his Mom's leg was being strangled by the snakes tail end.


This was the only interaction Tytyn had with any of the reptiles. ha ha

My Mom was explaining to Tytyn that she had to leave and he wasn't very happy about it as you can see.

We got a smile out of him eventually.

  1. That was such a fun trip. I'll miss coming to Vernal to see you and stopping off at some of our favorite places. I don't think I could have held that snake and I know dad wouldn't have either….good job!! Thanks for always making me feel welcomed when I come. Love you, Mom

  3. There is no way I would hold that snake! It's always fun when grandma comes and hard when they leave.

  4. I would have been running and screaming if I was by that snake.
