Thursday, Aunt Minda, Parker, and Annie came to visit us while V was working. We did a little Christmas shopping (thanks to Kelly for the friends and family discount), had lunch, and scrap booked (while Avin was sleeping). It was such a fun day! I think Avin loves having company, especially if they like to play with him!
Friday night, V and I went out to dinner at Red Lobster and to see Quantum of Solstice (the James Bond movie). Thanks to V's parents for watching our little Avin for us! :) They spent the night and we went to have Cracker barrel for breakfast. We also took a little tour of V's work place. It is amazing the stuff they have available to them for forensic stuff. So cool! Oh, one more cool thing....V gets to work from home one day a week now. This month it is on Fridays....it is so nice to have home...even if he is working. What a blessing!!
Then, on Saturday night, My cousin Jodie, new boyfriend Chris, and her two girls came to see us. We made Chili for dinner and had brownies as dessert. It was so neat having two more little ones running around the place. Bri is 18 months old just like Avin....She is just a week younger. And Bella is three. We really had a great time.
It is wonderful to live close enough to family that they can just come visit for the day or night. If we still lived in St. Louis this wouldn't be happening. We are SO happy to be here with them. Sometimes, okay most times, I wish they were right next door. If you live near your family.....don't forget how blessed you really are.
Unfortunately, after that wonderful weekend, I woke up this morning with a migraine headache. Luckily V let me sleep in. It was baaaddd.
Well, since we didn't have any pictures of the busy weekend, here is a picture of Avin riding the train at creekmore park last month . It was fun!
That's all folks! :)
