10 Days With My Parents

My parents flew out this morning after spending 10 full days with us here in our home. I'm grateful for all the love & support they gave us during their visit. It's hard & sad for me to be so far away from them.

Many highs: Manuel's 1st Easter Egg Hunts, trip to Zilker Park to ride the train, our date night while they babysat, Dad did some minor home repairs & vacuumed my car (all those goldfish, raisins + Cheerios), Mom prepared dinners, kept the kitchen clean & put flowers in my pots, eating scrumptious food from Chisolm Trail BBQ, Suzi's China Grill, and Texas Land & Cattle Steakhouse

A few lows: Manuel had a high fever for 2 days & lost some sleep due to double ear infections, my parents got sore throats/colds & had a few nights of interrupted sleep due to the boys waking up
