Special Visitors!

Last week Uncle Topher, Aunt Jaime, and Layla came to visit us.  We had a blast! They arrived to NC on Tuesday, February 21 and immediately jumped right into our schedule.  We took R to dance and then headed home for BBQ dinner.  Wed-Fri B & I had to work, but C/J/L found things to do that included visiting B at school and driving to Cary to visit a pastor friend. 

In the afternoons had something different to do every evening.  Wednesday night we had Bible Study so C/J/L got to meet all our friends and all our friends finally got to meet C/J/L.  We had a great time and even Layla played with the other kids.  Thursday after school, we went to Chick-fil-A for dinner since it was spirit night for WFRMS.  The kids played in the playground together and C/J stopped at Krispy Kreme for a sweet dessert.  yum!  Friday evening we met Keith & Jen for dinner at Milton's (our favorite).  C/J/L enjoyed it as well.

The weekend was just as busy.  Saturday B made his special CC pancakes for us.  The kids played until naptime and then W & L went to sleep.  I even took a short morning catnap.  C/J/L had plans to go to Wilson to meet up with some friends so that's where they went after L got up from her nap.  Our family went to the library and then to Walmart for our weekly trip.  Back to the house for lunch and then down for naps.  After naps, we took the kids to the play area in the mall and we had a fun.  Most of the toys are Melissa and Doug toys which we love.  They are educational, fun, and sturdy.  My mom and Chuck usually get the kids M&D toys for birthdays/Christmas.  After the mall playtime, we headed home to find C/J/L back from Wilson so we ate dinner together.

Sunday, C/J/L came to CRF with us at WFR campus.  And after church, lunch was at Moe's.  B was excited because he never gets Mexican food.  Home for naps and then our last evening together consisted of dinner and then marshmallows at the fire.  J and I stayed inside with W & L because it was cold.  After the fire, all the kids took one last bath together and then got ready for bed.  C/J/L were scheduled to leave Monday afternoon.  Our time had gone by so quickly....I guess since it was so much fun.  We really had a great time with C/J/L while they were out here and we can't wait to visit them in Lebanon one day.
