Finally Home For Awhile
I feel like the last two weeks have been such a blur. With my family here for about a week and all of the festivities involved with that, and then going to Texas for the past 4 days...life has been a bit busy. I am kind of glad that it might slow down for a little while now. We left for Texas on Friday morning. Landon stayed with my mom and had a BLAST. I knew he would, and I have to say that it is such a blessing to be able to leave him somewhere for that amount of time and know that he will be happy and well taken care of. We surprised one of my best friends from college for her birthday...and she was very surprised. It was really fun to ring the doorbell and have her answer it totally not expecting us. We went to an amazing mexican restaurant where Jason (Courtenay's husband) had reserved the wine cellar room just for us...very cool atmosphere. We even got serenaded by authentic Spanish singers. Saturday we went to the beach/pool. The community they live in has a WATERPARK and a BEACH all to themselves, so that was quite fun...and it made me want to live in a subdivision like that! Landon would have loved it... Anyway...Sunday was church and a wonderful meal and cake (which my dear husband made for Courtenay) and lots of talking and catching up. Then we flew home yesterday afternoon. It was a wonderful visit and we are so thankful that we could do it.
Now we are home...and I am just relaxing. I have my windows open and a beautiful breeze is blowing through the house. I had a wonderful lunch with Landon. We also washed the car together this morning and just played around. I know, I say it a million times...but I have to say it again...I love my life. I love my husband and my son...I love that I can be with Landon for every important milestone as well as the every-day stuff. I just love it.
So..here is the promised picture of my family. Even with all of the busyness we miss them terribly. It was so wonderful to have them here, but the hole that remains once they leave takes awhile to heal. With all of this travel and family stuff...I just have to say that I am so thankful for the blessings of my family and my friends. You all are priceless!
