so we were cooking a carrot cake while my mom was here... and yes... it was delicious... because all of her carrot cakes are amazing!

we put it in the oven and in order to get the temperature right, we had to prop a chair up against the oven door. this has to be done because the oven isn't exactly what we would call, "new" and the door tends to hang up just a little and let the hot air out. when my mom saw me push the chair up against the door, i explained it to her to which she exclaimed, "wow! this is fun... it's like camping!"

i jokingly thanked her for mocking our life. :)

my mom surprised us one day while we were out when she decided she wanted to get a henna tattoo. here is the lady designin' her up.

my mama has been here for nearly 3 weeks. we have done sooo many things and had such a good time. here are some shots from her time with us. click on it to enlarge it and see them up close.
