Sister Time



I had a great week last week. My sister, Debbie, was FINALLY able to come here for a long awaited visit! She bought a buddy pass last February to come visit us and got snowed in - IN ATLANTA of all places! Hasn't snowed there in years, and the very day she was supposed to fly out, downpour. Awesome. Then, she thought she'd just wait and come in September, right after Mabrie was born. And much thanks to some crazy parasite that about did both her and my brother-in-law in, that trip was canceled. She finally decided that she'd try and book the trip for mid-October and thankfully, everything worked out so that she could come.

We had a blast! We did all the normal sister stuff - shopped, talked, went out to lunch, cooked dinners together, laughed and just enjoyed our time so much. She had only seen Mabrie in pictures and on Skype, so she was thrilled to get to see her in person and hold her. I was so glad that she was able to see her while she was still "new" - you know - still a true newborn. It's amazing how fast they outgrow that sleepy newborn stage and I hated to think that she was going to miss that.

Our time flew by, but we enjoyed every minute. Looking forward to when we can do it again!
