We had the best visit with Grandma, Grandpa, and Chloe last weekend. They arrived on Thursday, Grandpa headed home on Sunday, and Grandma stayed until Tuesday to help with the boys. Thursday night they joined us at Phil's practice and afterwards we introduced them to Bobby's Burgers YUMMY...Friday while I was working they hung out with the boys, took them to the mall, and then we all went to Chepes..again...YUMMY! Phil got home late that night from a business trip to California with some great news. He got a promotion! Not only that, he will be joining me working from home beginning in late July!
On Saturday we went to Phil's practice again then to Williamson BBQ for lunch...tasty! We came back to the house and the boys and I headed up to the pool for about an hour. Grandma then suggested that Phil and I should go have a nice dinner and they would stay home with the boys, which we gladly accepted :-). Sunday we spent a couple hours on the boat. We anchored on a shore and had a great time hanging out and playing in the water. Chloe and Sarah joined us and I think they have become the best of friends.
Monday and Tuesday it was my turn to travel, headed up to Philly, which is why Grandma was so kind to stay with the boys. Now I'm back, have done most of my running around, and have to drive the dogs to the "Paw Spa" at 8am so we can head to Charlotte for Phil's tournament. Wish him luck!
Side note: on Tuesday we received word that MamaLee (my dad's mom in NC) has taken a turn for the worse. She has stopped eating and can no longer swallow. They have her on an IV and morphine but have decided against a feeding tube. As many of you know, she has been battling Alzheimer's for years and is now 95 years old. Please keep her in your prayers.
