This weekend we took my mom to Vermont. We stayed at a working Dairy Farm and then did some site seeing. One of the highlights was a hayride through a historic 1890's Farm. It was beautiful. Mom really seemed to like the wagon ride, but not the cows. The boys of course loved every minute of it. We took her to eat at a Japanese Steak House. That was rather interesting as she really just wanted "a chicken breast". I kept saying Mom they don't have KFC here, and she was like well that's what I want! We ordered her the chicken and she liked it, but I was worried for a little while she wouldn't eat it. We did get her to try some sushi, which she promptly spit out and said it was the worst thing she had ever tasted. :)
We got back home Sunday night and she worked on another puzzle. We didn't get to finish it, but she, my younger son and husband all worked on it together for quite a while. Today I took her to the airport, and after repacking her bags so that neither were over 50lbs, I went through security with her and waited until she boarded the plane. Everything seemed to go according to schedule, and she called this evening when she got home. I've tried to call her a few times since, to make sure the house is ok, and no pipes broke or anything, but I can't get her. She's making plans to go visit her sister in a few weeks, which will be good for her. I know she's going to enjoy that, and then we are going to try to get her to come back for Christmas. Overall, it was a great visit, and a good experience for everyone. I miss her already.
