Nini comes for a visit and St. Patrick's Day

Troy's mom, Nini, came to visit us about a week and a half ago.  (I know, I'm a little behind...I'm trying, I'm trying!)  ;)  We both took a lot of pictures, but I didn't have my camera for one of the days, but Poppy emailed them to me.  Unfortunately, they are a little small and I can't get them any bigger.  Oh well, I'm still going to use them.  
Nini flew in on Thursday night and we all picked her up from the airport.  It was cute while we were waiting for her to get to the car, Ellie made up a song while we were waiting.  "Nini where are you?" over and over again.  Then on Friday, we ventured out and took Ellie and the twins to Chuck E. Cheese.  Ellie loves it, so she had a great time.  Saturday, we went to see Troy's Aunt and Uncle and Cousins, and had a great time visiting with them.  Sunday, we went to the Miller grave sites and ran a few errands.  Monday, we went shopping with the kids.  They were all amazingly good for the hour or so we were at the mall.  Then, she had to leave Monday morning.  We did a lot of visiting at the house as well, and she was able to just hold the twins and enjoy being a Grandma!

Troy's Aunt made us the cutest shawls to wear.  
She even made one for Ellie.

One night we were relaxing at home and Benny decided 
that Nini was his new friend and jumped up in her lap.
Nini was so happy!

 I got a Moby wrap and it will hold twins!  It's great!
I don't know how long I can use it, but for now, it's awesome!

This would be such a cute picture if Ellie wasn't just crying!
