We came home from church and tried to get all the kids to the table so we could feed them some lunch. They were sick of sitting still so they were all over the house. Kyle and I were in the kitchen making up some lunch and since we happened to be hosting the family dinner for this month I was checking on the things that I had started making for dinner, when we heard the kids yell that someone was here. Then we heard “It’s GRANDPA AND GRANDMA!” I called down the hall to them that it’s NOT Grandpa and Grandma “They are in California it’s probably just the boys coming to collect the fast offering”. They insisted that it was Grandpa and Grandma. Kyle went to answer the door, I was unconvinced and therefore continued what I was doing in the kitchen. Then he opened the door and I heard my parent’s voices! So I went to the door and the surprised greetings began. Dad was totally pleased that he fully surprised us. They were taking a trip away to meet Debby and Jeff in Vegas on Labor day and decided to leave earlier. Mom thought they were going to spend the night in St George and after getting their hotel room in St George and stopping for something to eat, they hopped back in the car and kept heading north. So even mom was surprised, she had no idea that Dad planned to come all the way up to see us. They got lucky that we were hosting the family dinner with Kyle’s family this month and so we were going to be home. That would have been so sad if they had come up and we were at either Kyle’s mom’s or sister’s house.
Dad held Adam while Mom was in the bathroom, but from the time that she got out to the time that they left (minus the time she was eating dinner) she was holding Adam. Nobody in Kyle’s family got to hold him until Mom and Dad left to head back to St George.
So Adam had a whole bunch of visitors today, considering this is the first time that my parents or Kyle’s family have met him.
