Malinda Visits

Malinda asked if she could come visit us over her spring break and we were so excited for her to come.  The kids loved seeing Auntie Lou!

We took a trip up to Hammond's Candy Factory for a tour.  They make everything from homemade lollipops to caramels to marshmallows to chocolates and more.  The day we went through they were making candy canes.  It was amazing to see how big the block starts and then it gets worked down to candy cane size.  We came home with way to much candy!

After that all of our plans pretty much went out the door.  Evy got sick and our pediatrician had us bring her into the ER.  Really she wasn't that sick to necessitate a ER visit, but it was a better safe than sorry situation.  Malinda was so awesome to watch Nate the whole day and be his buddy.  She really was a lifesaver!  And then we had another snow storm so we hunkered down.  We did make some cool forts and Malinda was awesome enough to do my hair for me.  And we had some good olde girl time.

I had all these cool plans, but I'll save them for next time Malinda comes to visit.  See you soon hopefully!
