A Visit from Gamma, Complete with Cranberry Muffins

Gamma came out for a nice Long weekend. It was wonderful to have her here for a while. I miss her so much. And wish we didn't live so far away. We had so much fun together while she was here. The Girls & I picked her up at the airport. They were so excited to see her. As soon as she was in the car she was busting out the gifts. She is like me, she can't wait until Christmas to give gifts. The girls loved their new dolls and doll clothes. Then on the way home from the airport Gamma treated us to the Olive Garden, one of our favorite restaurants. So yummy. We spent our nights watching pride and predjudice with Colin Firth and our days cooking and baking and playing with The Girls. I love to bake with my mom. We made lots of delicious food, but these were my favorite.

A nice hot muffin with butter and a cup of tea for breakfast is so comforting and sure hits the spot on chilly mornings. I love especially cranberry muffins during the winter months they seem so festive with the pretty red color ;) Shortly after we made muffins, it was time to bring Gamma back to the airport. We were sad to see her leave. But we all had a blast and we are so blessed she made the trip.
