Boys' Visit

In early October, my dad and both of my brothers visited from California for the A&M vs. Arkansas game at the new Cowboys stadium. I am upset that I didn't get any pictures with Uncle Billy and Uncle Jason, but I did get a few with Bapa. Here are a few highlights from their trip:

- Every morning, my dad had a new car for Luke hiding somewhere in his room for him to find. Luke LOVED this, and he still talks about his five Ferraris(sp?) from Bapa to this day. Take note: cars are the way to win Luke's heart. :)
- My brothers, Billy and Jason, were so much fun with the boys. It was neat to see them help out so much and play with the boys. They will be great daddies one day!
- Jason watched Thomas so much with Luke that he got a really obnoxious song stuck in his head. Ha!
- We went to a new frozen yogurt place with them at the Harbor. Yummy! Another way to win Luke's heart...ice cream!
- Luke was whining quite a bit, and I could tell it was driving Jason crazy. He finally asked me, "Hey, Alissa...can you just tell him that he's acting like a baby? Would that work?" Ummm...not so much for a 2-year-old, Jason. :)
- Greg got to go to the game with them, and they had so much fun. The Aggies lost big, and they were soaked from walking in the rain, but they still had a great time. Greg loved seeing the new stadium.
- Luke woke Billy and Jason up every morning. They were good sports about it, but Billy finally admitted that he's not ready for kids because he values his sleep too much. So true, Billy, you always have!
- I woke up one morning to Jason making up a song for Luke with every move he made. It was hilarious, and Luke loved it.
- Luke made all of us sing "The Spirit of Aggieland" in the car with him.
- I had many good conversations with them. I missed my mom and sister and didn't feel complete without them here, but I loved focusing on the guys this time.

Thanks for coming out, Bapa, Uncle Billy and Uncle Jason. We love you and miss you. See you in a few weeks!
