Visit from the family

WOOOO HOOOOOO!!! The Walker's came to town! In my haste to go to sleep, I totally forgot to write about the visit from the family!!

It was so great. They got here on Friday at about 1, it was Mom, Dad, Roy Jr, Kala and Kelsey!! We had a nice late lunch and then the LSU game was on.. they lost in a bunch of overtimes, the guys were into it, the girls.. umm, not so much!

THEN Jett found BOTH Kent and Jeff's games on the internet radio stations, so we all sat around and listened.. ok, the guys listened til the end, I wimped out and went to sleep, but I DID dream about being there.. ok.. well I wish I had been there but I don't dream about football.. whatev.. I love it that they won!! WOO HOO GO Dragons and Go Panthers!

Saturday we get up and it is raining and dreary but we decide to head to the big city of Baton Rouge to show some sights and of course, SHOP! We took them to the state capitol and to the casino boats, through the ghetto (kind of and not on purpose) then we headed to WalMart. We found the present we are getting for Sammi and then we played with all the toys (ha.. you think I am joking, but I am not) and then decided we were hungry. We ate at Jason's deli, which I love that place. After I threw up (not at the table of course) we left. The guys headed home for.. *GASP** more football and the girls headed off to find PIG stuff for Sammi. We decided that Kala should just make Sammi a Pig comforter instead of buying one.. well, mainly because we could not find one to buy anywhere. So we thought fabric shopping should be a breeze. Umm, not so much. If anyone can find pig fabric, it would be much appreciated. However, I did find a robe to wear in the hospital, score for me.

We then headed to this consignment shop for maternity and children. I have to find a formal to wear to Krista's crowning, you know, since she IS Ms. BRCC and also to Jett's company party. I should have skipped the shops and gone straight to the tent shop.. but that is beside the point. I found a cute little dress, it was only like 65.00 USED.. Kala found Sammi a dress, same story. Needless to say, we bailed on that and headed to Burlington. I found a dress that I am .. ehh, ok with .. not my favorite but at this point, there is NOTHING attractive about me in a dress, so I just settled for this one. Next I have to find some boots, but hey, I have about four days to do that HA!

By the time we were done with all that we (well, I say we but everyone knows that I mean I) were wore out.. so we headed home to the house. We stopped at the store and got stuff to make taco's and finally made it home. I was so tired. The guys were watching a really good movie on lifetime.. oh who am I kidding, it was football again.. same story different verse.. so we spent the rest of the night just hanging out, picking on each other and eating tacos. Jett went and got Krista from the airport, she had flown to Texas for Thanksgiving and so he went to bring her home.. so that was good to have her back.. we miss the snot when she is gone :)

Sunday bright and early it was time for them to leave.. they pulled out around 6 45 and I thought I would go back to sleep.. instead, I pulled everything out of the fridge and scrubbed it. Let's face it, this nesting phase I am going through is going to drive everyone nuts.. luckily Jett and Krista wait til I conk out (which is constantly) to talk about me being psycho..

All in all, it was a great visit from them and I am so happy they made the long trip after a hectic Thanksgiving in Corpus.. I have the best in laws in the world .. and I really and truly mean that :)

Love to all!
