The last 2 days...


Yesterday was a strange day. I was at work, minding my own business doing what I was supposed to be doing and called my parents who had been on the road since Monday with business to see where they were. I knew they were on their way home but didn't know where they were or when they were actually gonna get here. This was about 10am. Mom said they were in Siekston Missouri which is pretty far from where I THOUGHT they had spent the night in Paducah Kentucky. Mom said they were headed in as fast as they could so they could get the yard mowed before the rain set in for the next 3 days. Made sense to me, they have done that before. SO... about 1:30 I hear someone come in the door at work and down the hall towards my office. It sounded like a little kid walking down the hall but then there was my Dad followed by a big SURPRISE being yelled at me by my 3 and a half year old niece (who was supposed to be in Michigan!) My Sister met them half way and handed her off so she could stay the week with them and then ride to the beach with them next week. I was SHOCKED. I knew my Mom wanted to bring her home with them but she couldn't really figure out how to make it work. Tuesday this week Bryan and I went and bought a web cam so we could finally talk to Ali while she's in Michigan. I saw her Tuesday night on the computer in her bedroom and then Thursday afternoon HERE SHE IS! Oh I was so happy to see her. I hadn't seen her in 2 months and missed her terribly. Now I really can't wait until we go to the beach. I got to spend most of the day with Boo today and we talked about EVERYTHING we are going to do while we are at the beach. We are going to make sand castles, go eat at Lulu's, pick up sea shells for Nana, have a movie night, have a birthday party, eat popcorn, sleep late, and play in the water. She's 3 and already she takes after me with planning lol. 6 Days. Only 6 more days and we are headed to Gulf Shores. Wooo Hooo.
