Family Visit



My brother, Craig, and parents came down for a visit on Sunday. My brother is currently in PA school with the Army in San Antonio. The last time he saw Lucas was at Christmas. Hard to believe how much he has changed now. When Lucas saw him come up the porch steps, he got a huge grin on his face. It was great to see. Of course he loves my parents and took to them like he normally does. My brother gave Lucas a cute bongo drum set that lights up and plays music. You can also make it into a ball so Lucas can roll it. He seemed to enjoy it. My brother had never seen the house before and he was amazed at how big it was and the backyard. Craig is a big goofy guy and I hope Lucas gets to know him as he grows up.

Of course we had to show Craig my new favorite show-Wipeout. I laugh so hard at this thing. You should check it out if you are looking for mindless humor. It is on Tuesdays at 8pm on ABC. Check it out. My brother and sister and I all have similar types of humor and true to form, Gaw loved it. I told him I would TiVO it for him from now on and send it to him. He doesn't get much time to watch TV with his class load. My mother thinks we are all a bit strange for enjoying such craziness-there are worse things we could like.

So they were all here for about 4 hours and then left. My parents will be back in two weeks for the big guy's birthday but I am not sure when we will see Uncle Gaw again. We sure do miss him!
