After spending 4 days in Detroit we made it home about 5pm on Sunday with mixed emotions. We had an awesome visit with baby bro and sis not to mention Miss Belle. Erica knocked herself out cooking and she had so many things planned. She was a wonderful hostess. And the awesome chocolate roll will be with me for at least a few weeks I'm sure. FABULOUS. Thanks you for an awesome weekend. We were blessed to be guests at the Knepper Inn (a.k.a. The gracious Barby and Craig Knepper home). We felt at home from the moment we arrived with accommodations that far surpassed our night at the Comfort Inn and Suites. Thank you Kneppers. Oh, and if you are wondering who B-dub is after playing Rock Band or Guitar Hero that would be my beloved. He really enjoyed the Wii. haha...
So now it's back to life...had to go get a few groceries for kids breakfast and lunches tomorrow, pick up Hank the wonder dog from his Aunt Constance's house, get kids fed, clothes laid out, back packs out and filled with over$150. worth of back to school supplies, -Next week I'll have to pay another $50. to the school for supply fees. What in the world is that for anyway? I have already purchased everything they could possibly need for school right down to the Kleenex and Ziploc bags? sorry just venting!-anyway, get baths and read a few chapters of Junie B. Jones and walk the dog before collapsing in the chair and ignoring all the laundry, dishes and mess.
But it was so worth it. Brian and I decided that it was worth a six hour drive just for the time we had with Belle who has never given "Umpapl Brian" a moments notice until this past weekend. He really enjoyed playing tickle monster, and looking at books with his favorite niece (on the Kirk side) and she even let him hold her hand and carry her, sealing the deal with a kiss on the cheek for him. I enjoyed much of the same. We are blessed.
Well, time for a quick bath and then sleep, 6am comes early. Love, Alyssa
