My parents. . . they're great!

They really are. You know. . . they came in town to 115 degree weather on their motocycle in full sweat and proceeded to drink 7 glasses of water each. All the while, they were still smiling. They came with us to swimming lessons on Tuesday morning in the 100 degree weather and then they wanted to go back Wednesday AND Thursday.



We saw Indiana Jones together, went bowling, went swimming, went out to eat and went to Home Depot where Dad hauled a REALLY heavy grill home for Shane's birthday. . . . again, in the 115 degree heat.
I think they may have been really bored in between all of these outings. At one point Mom said she even read the cookbook. I love that they put up with us for a week to spend time with my kids. Tyler and Paige just love it when they are here. They love it when Dad sings karaoke and they can dance. They love showing off their art and their toys. They love eating dinner with everybody all together. They love playing games and reading books with Mom. I'm so thankful to have such great parents! We miss you!



Yes, that last picture is Paige in my wedding dress. They were looking at pictures and she wanted to see my dress. You can see where things went from there. She thought it appropriate to "just sit for a while" before we put it back in the box. What a girl!

p.s. Mom, my two friends Melanie and Melany have confirmed the landing of the helicopter in the park, so I guess we have to believe you now!

35 days!

Only 35 days until Morgan is due. . . . I can't believe it! It's gone by fast. Paige is sooooo excited. Every time she looks in Morgan's drawers she talks in a really high voice and says. . . "I can't wait till we can put this on her!" My friend Connie threw me a fabulous shower with cheesecake and more cheesecake. (homemade, none the less!) My friends and family are so generous. I'm just blown away by all of the fun things we opened.

That being said, I now have to admit that the panic struck today. She's a lot easier to care for inside me than she's going to be outside. Let the nesting begin!
