Well, it was a little too short, but it was wonderful in every other way.
We had a long weekend with the Tally girls (and their guys)- Yes, Avery's the big attraction, but we kind of like her parents, too.
We loved seeing Jamie every day, too- and hearing a lot about some guy named Josh.. and on Sunday we finally got to meet him. He's a sweetheart- and a pretty good sport- he sat through 100 laps of NASCAR without complaining. (that's more than I can say for myself!) (Sorry, no pictures of Josh- he and Jamie are on Teresa's blog if you're curious.)
And we even had a quick visit with our old friends, The Richies. Gene and Terri were in town cleaning their kid's "college house" to get it ready to put on the market. Our kids are the same ages, and were all good buddies when they were small. Separated by mutual moves after Hurricane Andrew, we don't see them as often as we'd like- so when we heard they were in town we just had to interrupt their work for a few minutes! They sent all three of their kids to Tallahassee, and their girls came home when they were done (Their son, Tony, is roaming around the country playing baseball) ...our girls went to Tallahassee and stayed! O.K., so Kailee's the only one who's stayed for sure, and Jamie's still at FSU, so her final destination is yet to be determined, and Bonnie didn't exactly put down roots there....so I need to quit my whinin'. Two here and two there is pretty good- as long as we get to go see the ones there ever so often. And we did! And we made plans to try to go on a family camping trip in May- so, as Teddy says, it's all good!
