Grandma T's visit to Utah

This past week, Kory's mom came to visit. I love it when she comes to visit. She is such a joy and we love having her around. I don't know all the details of what she did exactly while she was out here, I just know the parts that included us. :)
She stayed with us a few days and we got to spend Conference Weekend with her at her parents' house in Logan.  She got to see her grandbaby, Sydney, who missed her very much! (obviously.)  We hope that her visit got to cheer her up a bit. :)

Her beauty pose!!! She does this all day long!
She loves her Grandma Teresa. This is a new face of hers though. LOL.
 

Grandma Teresa and Great Grandma Cheryl helped watch Sydney while Mommy and Daddy went to Cafe Sabor (amazing Mexican restaurant in Logan).

After Conference and Shelby and mom's visit during the week, Kory and I met up with them once again to have lunch before mom flew back to Illinois.  We went to Pat's BBQ in Salt Lake. If anyone knows Kory, then you know that he LOVES Barbaque. Me, on the other hand, have had to pick and choose what BBQ foods I like and don't like.  Pat's, however, was amazing and had an AMAZING mild BBQ sauce that I couldn't get enough of! Kory loved the hot BBQ sauce. The pork ribs were heavenly and we would recommend this joint to anyone. It was a Diner's, Drive-Ins, and Dives place (from the Food Network (we love the Food Network!)) and is found in the most obscure location. I recommend using a GPS if you're not good at finding addresses, or make sure you realize that you will not just "run into it".

Her daddy made a funny sound with his tongue and she gave us this face. :)
Finally, we just want Mom to know how much we appreciate her. She is such an inspiration to us. She may kill me for saying this, but she is currently battling cancer and has had to undergo surgery (December 31, 2010) and chemotherapy already (2 treatments so far).  She probably will have to undergo more treatments in the near future.  We know that cancer is not an easy thing to deal with, in addition to everything else going on in her life. But she needs to know that we still love her and want her around.  She has such a way of spreading optimism and love wherever she goes, no matter what is crumbling down around her. We know she has her bad days, but we hope she knows that she will always matter in our lives and that we pray for her everyday.  
We bought this frame to hang up in Sydney's room as a ray of sunshine and a witness that miracles still happen... and that she is our example of that.

We Love You, Grandma Teresa! :)
