Family Visit

My sister Maggie and her husband Jon came to visit for the weekend. We had a great time with them. They are excellent guests. They helped out with everything and made it very easy.

They have never been to our house before and they were coming in at about 2:00 AM on Saturday morning. We gave them the code to our garage and told them just come on in. I also told them that I would leave my black pickup outside the garage so they would know our house. The numbers on the house are hard to see at night.

I woke up in the morning and didn't think that they even made it. I didn't hear a thing so I had to check outside to see if their car was out there. Their car was out there but mine was in the garage. I forgot to leave my pickup outside.

We have neighbors that had a black pickup outside of their house though. My sister Maggie found out that they don't have the same garage code that we do. It occurred to Jon that maybe the code wasn't working for a reason and they finally ended up at the right house.

Jon and Maggie brought rockets for the boys to build and launch. They had a great time with the rockets. Jon was also a trooper and helped out with a move while he was here. We would post pictures of the visit but we didn't take a single one. We were too busy having fun.

Oh yeah, and lastly, we went to Crack Pots. I thought it was going to be like the movie Ghost where we got to make the pots and that it would be romantic. I was completely wrong. We had to be creative and my cup looked like a 2 year old did it. We did have a good time though.
