Meme & Poppy Visit

The weekend of the Big Snow, my parents came in for a visit.  Even though we were limited on the things we could do because of the snow and Meg was sick, we still had a great time with them.

Meme drove up on Thursday afternoon.  Poppy was scheduled to travel to St. Louis that afternoon, but didn’t make it because his flight was routed thru Dallas Love Field.  After a very long day of travel for Poppy, he finally made it to our house around 11:00 on Thursday night. 

Gunner is in LOVE with anyone who will let him snuggle up close.  He definitely loved having Meme and Poppy here, because they won’t kick him off their laps.

Meme and Poppy stayed thru until Monday since Meg had a school holiday.  It was a wonderful visit, but seemed too short (as usual).  We did dinner at the house a few nights, ordered a Mama’s Pizza and made it to Outback. 

By Saturday, we all had cabin fever, which worked out well because we needed to drive to Love Field to get Poppy’s bag.  It seems that Poppy’s bag made the trip from Austin all the way to St. Louis, even though his flight was cancelled and he wasn’t rebooked on another flight.  Thankfully, we were able to get his bag back on Saturday afternoon. 

Sunday was pretty low key.  The boys went to the gun show in Ft. Worth, and Meg, Meme & I went shopping.  That night, Hailey spent the night with us.  I like to refer to Meg & Hailey as Best Frenemies.  Those to have to funniest relationship.  It’s always something.
