Well, it has been a whirlwind few weeks with my parents visiting! After the weekend of seeding and planting (sidenote: we have new grass growing already!) - this past week was filled with surprises and fun! Although Matt had to work and I had Barbri class....that didn't stop us! My mom and I went into Arlington one afternoon for a quick stop (spent more time in traffic than we did in Arlington! Ha! Ha!) Then my Dad surprised us all with an early return from Bermuda. My mom and I then left the boys to watch Molly, play Wii Tiger Woods golf, and grill out while we shopped until we dropped at the outlets in Leesburg, Virginia.
It was a great time hanging out with my parents. It's only been a few hours since they drove away, but I already miss them. Matt and I can't thank them enough for everything they did for us while they were here - especially helping to make Charlottesville feel like home.
So although it was sad to wave goodbye to them this morning as they began the drive back to Florida, Matt and I will be glad to say Hi at the end of July...beginning of August.
Here's hoping the next 53 days fly by (yes, I counted the days)!

it's sort of amazing how much you miss parents when they're gone, isn't it? and how much just having family around can really make your house feel like a home. brian's mom and bro were here for a while last week, and i was sadder to see them go than i thought i would be!
Well, I read Kelly's comments...then Liz's posted comment..and I am awed knowing how wonderful we parents are! Can't imagine anything closer to "godliness" in our descriptions; wonder if the "stay"was two months...hmmm! Well, for parents everywhere that have raised such terrif kids...let it be known..we feel good nanananan! Thanks for the thanks..Kudos to all!
