Staycation with Grandma, Bella and Papa

Dont know if anyone is reading my blog,
but I think these moments are important, so here it goes anyway.

We are so glad that Marta and Bella came to our house for a week long visit before they moved to Georgia. It was our first time having family stay more than one night and we loved it. We had dinner when they arrived here on Monday night. And then started planning our week once they got here.
First full day with them here,
we went to story time at the Provo library
Our Second full day of them being here, we took a trip to Carl's Junior and then went to the dollar theater to watch Rio, which just happened to be in 3D.

The glasses were pretty cool


The movie was about a captive blue macaw, that was brought to Brazil to be bred. He goes on some fun and exciting adventures, and discovers who he is and where he came from.


Then we went to the neighborhood potluck bbq for dinner. Everyone had baked fish (I traded my for chicken). And the kids played with the other kids in the quad.
The next day we went to the zoo, amazing Elephants.
Rio at the theater was a good activity to do the day before the zoo.
We went to the bird show and they blue and red macaw's flying
around. It was amazing to watch
