Adventures with the Grammies!

 On Sept 20, after what seemed like MONTHS of anticipation, my Mom finally landed in SA for a 2 month visit. She brought her friend Karetha, so we got a bonus grammy! We were right in the middle of school holidays so we wasted no time setting off on adventures!

Lucky for us they were both up for it. Check out my 71 year old mom. Coolest Grandma on the PLANET!!

We stayed in our favorite spot on the garden route:

 And then headed into the wilder parts of Africa!

 On our way out to the Bavaiaanskloof we had to rescue a huge tortoise from the road!

 And the grammies fit right in with our family habits of good food and fun fitness. They were super competitive with each other and it really took them to new levels. We did a strength training workout on M, W, and F. When they came they could plank for about 7-9 seconds. By the time they left they could hold a perfect plank for 55 seconds. And they both lost fat and gained muscle. I am SO proud of them!

 Of course we had to take them on many animal adventures. We did a new safari called Scotia Safaris and saw Lions! It was awesome!

We had a blast with our driver...

 They helped me throw the best Paleo Halloween Party Ever:

And we sent them off to Elephant back Safaris for a few days.

 They got to ride, feed them and watch them play in this new mud-hole they've made.

 They had a blast!

 We had some incredible food while they were here.

 And met all kinds of people.

 Their visit ended much too quickly and left us all wondering where the 2 months went! We can't wait to have them back...
