Surprise, surprise!

For those of you who didn't know this, DJ's mom and two of our nieces have been staying with us all this week to watch Nate while the babysitter is on vacation. Next week my mom comes to stay, so we are super blessed to have such great family! This morning at work I got a text from Jessica, our niece. She said she was in Waco with Chuuuuuuuck (her boyfriend whose real name is Curt), and could they come surprise Nana and the girls and come see Nate? OF COURSE!! So they started driving and got here around 3:30 or so. Stopped by DJ's work to surprise him, then came to the apartment to surprise Nana and the girls (and Nate!). What a great surprise for them and a good time for all of us! Yes, our tiny apartment is a little crowded, but it is worth it for us all to be together.

Tomorrow is the RANGERS game! My mom, dad, sisters, brother in laws, and all the kiddos are going to the Ballpark in Arlington to enjoy a game. And we're taking the girls, Amie and Jamie, to their first Rangers game. Since I work in Arlington I will just meet them at the ballpark and Lori and family will be bringing DJ and the girls. We're all really looking forward to it. Maybe I'll even get a "hoooooootttttttttddddddddooooooooggggggggg!" If you've ever been to a baseball game, you get that reference....

As the week draws to a close, we are sad to see Nana and the girls (and Jessica and Curt) go. But we are also looking forward to my mom staying with us for a week. Every once in a while, a girl just needs her mommy! And I don't get to spend much time with her when she is here, so I'm looking foward to a whole week! But we will miss all of the spoiling Nana has done, we are so blessed to have her in our lives. She is the BEST!! Ok, that's it for now....goodnight! :)
