Tuesday November 13th through the 15th Aunt Parksie and Uncle Bob drove into Tennessee to visit the family for a few days. Because of the allergies and Aunt Parksie's asthma, they couldn't stay at our house (because of Sis) so we were able to find them a hotel room 3 miles from our house that worked and was convenient. Although everything around this area is pretty "convenient" which those of you who haven't come to visit us yet haven't been able to WITNESS for yourselves yet...so it wouldn't have been too hard to find them a location that was pretty centrally located.
Anyhow, they arrived and got settled in then came to the house and spent some time visiting and catching up on all of our families, all the kids, all the happenings of everyone and then we waiting for Daddy to call because we would be meeting for dinner at Osaka's Hibachi grill. Daddy, Aunt Parksie and Uncle Bob haven't had much contact for a couple years so for them it was a reunion of sorts which would be a nice evening in itself. We finally went for dinner, unfortunately without Chad because work kept him away from us. We had a WONDERFUl meal and a wonderful visit with one another. Daddy and Kelsey came over to the house after dinner and visited for about another hour before they had to head back home.
The next day Uncle Bob, Aunt Parksie and I headed to the Mall at the Avenue shops after a breakfast at Perkins and spent the morning and afternoon shopping away. We had a wonderful day together and after an afternoon rest, they came over to the house and spent some time with the boys before we headed out to dinner at Corky's for some barbeque. Chad was able to meet us for dinner....YEAH....and then after dinner we said our good byes so that they could head back to their hotel room to pack and prepare to leave early the next morning.
It was a wonderful visit with them and the only thing was that it wasn't long enough to be able to take them to some of the neat sites around the city that I know Aunt Parksie, especially, would have liked. I just told them that they would definately have to plan another visit but I have a funny feeling that they were already thinking that before I mentioned it.
Love to you all and til next time-
