Had just finished up a Girl's Camp meeting about 3:00pm on Monday, when a man's voice called in through my screen door saying he was lost and needed to use my phone. It kind of startled me so I just peeked around the corner and my Dad and Step-Mom Susan were on my front porch!
They flew in from Yuma, Arizona for a couple of days. It was so fun to have them in my home (their first visit to Castle Rock) and after recovering from the initial shock ... we had a GREAT time!
Jacob had band practice after school and Kraig had made a quick trip to LA that day and wouldn't be back until late, so we just did a tour of the house (dirty bedrooms/bathrooms included) and sat a talked. They had already taken a room at the Best Western up the street (didn't want to put me into total cardiac arrest) so later that evening they headed back over to their hotel. Susan didn't sleep too well because the Hotel is right near the train tracks and freeway so next visit they said they will GLADLY sleep in the "basement suite"!
The next day we did a little site-seeing in downtown Castle Rock and sat outside and had lunch at Dream Pastries. This week is Dad's birthday so he is showing off his new watch he got from the Outlet Stores!
Had to show Susan, Jessica's favorite place ... "The Barn"!
We brought home take-out food when Jacob and Kraig got home and sat on the deck and had a wonderful evening visiting. I can't believe that I didn't get more pictures! They were here and gone so fast! Next "planned" visit ... they will have to stay longer!!!
Susan left us "Witch Mabel" that she made for our front door!
Now that they know where we live ... hopefully they will come back soon!!!!

What a great time! Too short, too much to talk about and missed the tour of Bubbles. Oh well, next time.
