Day 20
Thursday Mike the babies and I went to visit Grandma and Bill Barbee one more time. It was a good visit--we had lunch together and the babies took a nice nap on Grandma's bed. Then we went to see Aunt Lou Ann at work so she could show off the babies to her friends.
Here's a good shot of her with the twins!
Lou Ann's friend Beth is getting lots of kisses from Holden
After that we went to my dad's for dinner. This time Anne made yummy kabobs. We also had a surprise visitor for dinner..Hillary and Jack! They were making their way back to Fayetteville from Mocksville and stopped by to see us one last time. with Grandpa and Grandma
Day 21
Friday was NOT a good day for the babies. We had plans to visit Mike's Grandma Una, visit Chick-fil-a, and then hopefully catch up with the Hurley family (a family whose kids i used to keep). All seemed fine in the morning. We got up early and went to eat breakfast with Great-Grandpa Williams, but after their morning nap all went to poop! I'm not sure exactly what happened but Holden was NOT happy it seemed to be a bit contagious because Nora was grumpy on and off too. All of this to say...we didn't go anywhere Friday. But seriously, this is 1 bad day in 23 that we were home...so i guess they were allowed, and it was nice to just relax and not go anywhere.
Friday night, Mike and I met some old friends from highschool at the new restaurant in Asheboro, the Flying Pig. We had a great time with everyone and lots of laughs...that's the best kind of night! After dinner, Mike and I went to see the A-Team. I had no idea what this movie would be about and just assumed i wouldn't really enjoy it, but it was actually quite entertaining--so good choice Hubby!
Day 22
Saturday our intention was to stay close to the house, try and keep the babies on somewhat of a schedule, do laundry, pack, etc. I did meet my highschool friends again for lunch at San Felipe...this time though a very good friend I haven't seen since my wedding was there...Jennifer! Jenn drove down from Washington DC to see us and it was so good to see her too!
Here she is with the babies!
Tim and Holden hit it off ...the popped collar was Tim's doing!
We are all so different now and on different paths of life and living in different parts of the world, but it seems every time we get together, its like no time has passed. We don't know everything about each other's lives anymore, but that never really matters. We're all just good friends who have a good time together and I am so thankful to have them in my life after all of these years!
Since San Felipe is so close to Chick-fil-a we couldn't help stop for a moment...I had to let the babies meet Mike and Andy! Here's a great pic with Mike and the Cow! Chick-fil-a always brings back good memories...it was one of the most fun places I've ever worked!
My brother, Alex, celebrated his 21st birthday on Thursday, but he's going to summer school at Appalachain right now, so we celebrated his birthday on Saturday afternoon. Chocolate cake with chocolate icing and chocolate homemade icecream was on the menu and it was DE-licious! Happy Birthday Alex!
The rest of Saturday was spent with lots of drop-byes of good family and friends saying good-bye and seeing the babies one last time before we leave. It was great to see everyone, but a bit emotional too. I always hate the end of our time at home and having to say goodbye--but I will say, it has been an awesome trip home and I have enjoyed every moment of it! It was so good to see each one of you!
