gram's visit (memorial day 2012).

for memorial day weekend this year, marilyn drove down from kansas to spend some time with us.  emme's school was closed on friday, so i took a vacation day and she and i played.  marilyn arrived in the early-mid afternoon so we had a chance to visit before justin got home.  truthfully, the weekend was so jam-packed and there have been so many weeks since then, i can't even remember what we did when, specifically.  but highlights included: trudy's, marilyn getting to watch emme's swimming lesson, visiting various nurseries, searching for a particular type of salsa, a stroll at the dog park, and justin's gourmet grilling.  saturday, justin and marilyn took emme for a few hours while i rested and cleaned the house - it was so strange to have time away from her on the weekend, i kind of didn't know what to do with myself!

anyway...marilyn took lots of pictures, but jb and i were uncharacteristically absent on the photo scene. regardless, it was a super fun, laid back weekend and we were so glad to have gram over to hang out.
