NY is deep in the heart of Texas

Life in a Nutshell

So part of the "G-clan" was here yesterday! Aunt and Uncle look great (DD#2 called uncle "Granpa"...b/c he looks like him!) The two boys played with my two boys...guess what they played...baseball! And the kids got baseball cards of Mike and Scott, and even an autograph from Scott...DS#1 was sooo thrilled. Laura played with the girls, and gave them friendship bracelets...very cool. We just hung out at the house, chatting and catching up. Uncle took the boys to get ice cream for dessert, and a little cone for the car. And so the day was spent playing and chatting and eating. It was very relaxing, even for me, b/c they insisted that we "not fuss" over them....so I "fussed" a bit with appetizers and such, but we had hamburgers and french fries (yes, the frozen ones) and watermelon, with brownies and ice cream for dessert. The focus was not the food, but the company, and that is where it should be!

I plan to take the 3 "olders" to a game in McKinney tomorrow night and then go up again Friday during the day to hang out by the pool at their hotel with them. They leave Saturday, and since we haven't seen them in a few years and probably won't be up that way for awhile, then I think we can handle a few 45min drives to visit them. (esp since we have new wheels!)

Sorry, no pics this time, but I will do better when we see them this week.....
