We missed Aunt Heather & Uncle Adam

You always know when you're missing someone, but sometimes you don't remember exactly how much until you see them again. That's how I felt when Adam & Heather arrived Friday night. It was SO good to see them again. It had been 3 months since we saw them last. It might not sound like long, but since they used to be one house away from us in Temple, going 3 months without seeing them felt like forever!

We had such a fun weekend. Saturday we hung out in the morning and played with Drew. Heather & I made a quick shopping trip downtown where we found fabulous goodies for the dogs. I've always wanted to get Bailey a string of "dog pearls"...and I finally found some! It's just the feminine touch she needs (and it's fun to drive Adam crazy seeing his dog dressed in pearls). Doesn't she look beautiful?


Here's some of our Saturday morning.


Then we headed out to Lake Texoma and rented a boat to test out the waters. It was Drew's first adventure on the lake and he seemed to love it! Adam & Heather gave him his very first life jacket (they know I'm a little paranoid about babies on the water). Drew wasn't sure he liked it until he figured out he could chew on it...then he loved it! We packed a picnic lunch and had a great day.



After the lake, we came home and relaxed briefly before heading out for dinner. It was a big milestone for us...we left Drew with a babysitter! Thankfully, Drew was so wiped out from his big day at the lake that I think he was down for the night just about 45 minutes after we left him. So, while he was snoozing, we went to downtown Sherman for some dinner and then over to the Sofey's house to introduce Adam & Heather to some of our new friends.



Sunday morning we all went to church and then had good lunch at home before having to say bye to Adam & Heather. It was such a fun visit with them. Even Kobe loved having Bailey back to play with!! We hope it won't be too long before we see them again!
