Megan's Visit

   January was a fun month because Megan and Casey came to visit on Wednesday, Jan. 27th!  Casey got his first airplane ride at only two months, and he was a perfect passenger, slept the whole way!  Kelly, Caleb and I picked them up at the airport, then hit Babies R Us, then Applebee's for lunch.  Caleb and Casey were very well behaved at the restaurant, although there were some worried looking customers when we arrived.  Caleb did throw a toy at some businessmen, but luckily it did not land in their food! 
   On Thursday, Grandma De De came up and we had all the boys at my house for the day.  Four adults, four kids, but still I think the kids were in charge!  We had a great Oriental Chicken Salad for us girls, mostly breastmilk for the boys, lol, except Cooper.
    On Friday, Megan, Kelly and I, with Caleb and Casey, went to the Supermall.  The Carter's Outlet is a fave for all, so we spent lots of time and $$ there.  Then we went and took Shauna to lunch at Subway.  Again, the babies were great and we got to have a fun girl's lunch out.
   Friday night, Ryan arrived from Tri-Cities with Tobie, and we had dinner at our house with all the kids and grandkids.  Woohoo!
   Saturday morning, Shauna's photographer friend, Tonya arrived to take family pictures.  The house was complete chaos with everyone trying to get ready.  But Tonya did a great job and it was actually really fun.  And we were VERY happy with the results!  We got over 200 pictures!

And finally a picture of Kirk and I with all our grandsons!

We had a ball getting all the pictures, and we will treasure them forever, along with the memories of how funny it was to try to get them!  That evening, after the big boys went to the Sportsmen's Show, Grandma and Grandpa Porter came up and we had a prime rib dinner to celebrate Shauna's birthday.  And we had not one, but two birthday cakes!  Yay, cake!

   Megan and Ryan headed home on Sunday with a sick Tobie-dog, who was not eating.  I told him goodbye and gave him a love, but later I wished I had given him a hug, because I would not get to see him again.
