my dad came to visit
and beleive it or not, I had to work. AT THE VIDEO STORE. Big bummer. Seems the stomach bug was going around Slaton and one of my employees was not going to work. She called, I went. Dad drove in, let himself in the house and made himself at home, my insistence of course. We had a great visit! He lives in Kentucky and I don't get to go there as much as I need to to or want to for that matter. So, I was really not planning on doing a thing when he got here.
- card games, Phase 10 mostly
- played several games of "one on two" BB and HORSE and anything else that involved our 1/2 court and basketball goal.
- went to Tinseltown and watched the movie Narnia, which was so beautiful and well done that I would see it again and again!
- listened to Dad's new Christmas CD and some of the tracks on his up and coming CD, although my stereo sucks and we couldn't get it to play very well.
- played on the laptops and computer and even set up a blog for dad!
- laid around the house being lazy and staying in our PJ's all day. (Okay, so that was me and not them, but still, I loved it.)
- visited constantly and tried to get caught up on every day things you miss in each other's lives and basically just thorougly enjoyed each other's company.
- realized Mimi has an inner thing going with "biker chicks". That woman can RIDE!
- cried when we read the sweet notes they left for us the morning they left.
Here's just a few of the images I took while they were there. Can't believe it was such a short visit. And once again, I had a wedding. Must go back to KY for a visit really soon. Anyone getting married in Kentucky?
Summer, putting on her best face for a chance at Phase 10. The girl can pout!

Of course they still wore you out.
Don't feel bad, they do me too.
