A day with family

Yesterday, we had a surprise visit from Zach's sister and brother-in-law and their 2 month old baby, Grace. They live about an hour away. My kids were still napping in one of those extra-long 3 hour "thank you Jesus" naps when they arrived, and I was so grateful for some one-on-one cuddle time with my new little niece. She is precious! They stayed for a simple dinner of eggs with potatoes, asparagus, and onions and some yogurt and strawberries...with peanut butter cookies for dessert. After they left, Zach and I put our boys down for bed and then my brother Will came to pick me up for a night out. We rented a good action movie called "State of Play" from Redbox and went over to my parents' house and munched on homemade chex mix and gingersnaps, complements of my mom. It was so nice to have some downtime. Zach stayed at the house to study and the boys didn't make a peep. It was a good day. It was actually a great day....because we found out that our dear friends Chris and Kaye could possibly be moving to Tulsa (from Austin) soon. Chris will interview for a job here next week. I am praying hard!! Oh please, oh please, oh please! Yes, this was a very good day.
