A Surprise Visit

Last weekend we all had surprise visitors. Steve and I knew that my brother Robert was coming into town for the weekend but we decided not to tell the boys. There were multiple times I almost let it slip and did end up telling them that we had fun plans for the weekend and used that excuse to get them to mind. When the doorbell rang on Friday afternoon I let the boys answer it and there they saw Uncle Robert.We were all surprised to see that he had brought my sister Tina with him. She had never been to Utah to visit and we were so excited to see her. She kept asking Robert all the way out here if we would be ok with her showing up unannounced. We were more than ok with it!! Friday was such a beautiful day that we all hung out outside and had a yummy barbecue. We stayed up way too late just visiting and catching up. Saturday morning we got up early to go to Lucas' soccer game. He had a great game and managed to score a goal for Uncle Robert and Aunt Tina. Saturday afternoon Tina and I went for a drive to downtown Salt Lake and then on to a flea market. Neither one of us was too impressed with the flea market so we hit a couple of other stores before meeting up with the boys for dinner.
Again Saturday night we stayed up way too late playing Wii bowling with the boys. Come Sunday morning we tried to sleep in to no avail. We had a big breakfast before heading to a couple more stores to do some shopping.
Monday was back to school for Lucas as Robert and Tina prepared for their long drive back to Wyoming and Nebraska. We had such a wonderful visit with them and can't wait to see them in Wyoming at the end of May.
