Best Friends

Last week we were soooo lucky to have visitors from Cleveland!!! They were some of our best friends when we lived there and were the best neighbors ever!!! (actually our whole neighborhood was awesome!) Mary Pat and Tony flew in on Friday afternoon and left Sunday morning. It was a short trip, but so wonderful to see them again. We made sure to pack our time with them full of fun stuff. It was so fun to see Macie and Tony together again. We weren't quite sure how they would react or if they would know how to act around each other, but they picked up right where they left off not missing a beat. Mary Pat and I enjoyed one anothers company thoroughly and had fun catching up and holding babies. We cried when I picked her up from the airport and we cried when I dropped her off at the airport. Such good friends, who are greatly missed, but so wonderful to see them again!

 On Saturday, Geoff was so great and volunteered to stay home with the babies, so we could take the big kids out to do some fun things. We took them to the botanical gardens (totally not worth it in the middle of winter...didn't think about that one) But we had fun nonetheless.

 Then we took them to the water gardens in downtown Ft. Worth. That was fun. The kids had a blast running around and checking everything out.

 Tony originally had a bed on the floor next to the girls beds....when I went to check on them that night, this is how I found them. He and Macie in bed together.

On Saturday we went to a few stores to try and find some souvenirs for Mary Pat to take home to the rest of the family. We came across some really cute headbands and decided that we could make them ourselves. So that night we went to work and made a few. They were super easy and turned out super cute.

 All in all it was a fabulous visit, paired with a few super late nights (for us and the kids), and some wonderful memories. Thanks Mary Pat and Tony for coming to visit us! Can't wait until next time!
