My brother came into town on Friday, May 30th and the next 5 days were all about him. We went straight from the airport to Abilene and my sister's house. The kids were out of school that day, for the summer. We enjoyed a busy but fun weekend with them. Morgan had a ballet recital which was Joey's main reason for coming over. He took pictures almost all day at the dress rehearsal Saturday [1600 shots in all, I am told] and the recital itself was most of the day Sunday....so the weekend for him was overall short. But, we did eat out a few times, and got to play with the kids, which is always fun.
Morgan's ballet recital was long but fun as usual.....I don't know how she keeps up with so many different dance styles and routines. She had 5 dances this year but for me the first one was the best. First of all, she just looked so beautiful and graceful in it and seemed so in tune with the routine, etc. It really was pretty. Here is a picture :
I'll try to post more pictures of her other dances, once Joey gets all the shots he took sorted.
Joey and I came back to Arlington, late Sunday night, so we could get a good night's sleep. We had a great conversation in the car ride home about a project I have coming up that he, mom and dad will be helping me with. More on that in a couple of weeks.
Monday we went to IKEA and Joey loved it. I think he'll be making a trip to Orlando soon to go to the one closer to him. We both agreed that if we ever win the lotto we want our whole house decorated by IKEA.....I think I'll say, IKEA and Pier 1.
Monday night we went to the No Frills Grill to hang with my friends, a fun time was had by all even though once again, my cousin Tom's boyfriend, Kurt, seems to be an annoyance in trivia and by that I mean, he's too good....and so is Tom. Actually, it just makes me hope they keep coming to our NFG nights, it makes it more fun.
Tuesday Joey and I ran around to the mall and other places, with a yummy lunch at Pappadeaux's and then chilling at the apartment until it was time for him to go to the airport.
Basically, Joey in Texas equals fun. I'm glad he got to come even though the visit was short and busy.
More life tomorrow.

Is my granddaughter not the most beautiful person you have ever seen? I went to her recital last year and it brought tears to my eyes. I wish I could have been there this time also !! She looks like an angel.
