Aunt Roxie and Uncle Jim come for a visit...

Thanks Aunt Roxie and Uncle Jim for coming to visit! We had so much fun. With a packed schedule, the weekend flew by.

Although good to get away, Derek and I went out without the kids for the first time leaving both boys at home with Grandma and Tom to see a freezing cold Braves game on Friday night. Who would have thought 48 degrees in May! Babysitters Grandma and Tom tell us the kids did okay...but as expected both were testing the limits with mom and dad gone.

Saturday morning we all went for a nice walk around the lake to end up at the park for some swings and slides. The boys loved it...especially Hatcher. That afternoon we enjoyed a quick bit to eat outside at Moe's and headed downtown to the GA Aquarium, what kid wouldn't love that! Everyone had a great time. We had to take two cars everywhere and Hatcher would always ask if Aunt Roxie and Uncle Jim were behind us. When he didn't see them he would say, "did we loose them?" Saturday night Jim cooked the adults a dinner of pork chops and grilled squash. Yummy - thanks for the new recipe Jim!

The house was more quiet tonight with Hatcher not chasing relatives down and around every corner. When we put Hatcher to bed, he asked about Aunt Roxie and Uncle Jim - too sweet. Aidan, almost 10 months old now, scooted around on his bottom all weekend to tried and keep up with busy Hatcher. It was a good weekend...back to grind of work tomorrow...yuck!
