Our last night here......
So, we were planning to have just a nice quiet little family dinner with just us and all the kids over there at VJ & Sarah's house for the night...but somehow turned into a little party! Patty & Katrina had driven up from Brownsville to spend the weekend with Charles....so they came over! Vince's longtime family friend from early Air Force days. Stacy, and her family came over. Vince's nephew Luke came over. Christina's friends found out she was in town, so they came over. So we had a nice little impromptu gathering over at the house! It was great seeing everyone and spending the evening together. Vince and I were really sad we were leaving...it was a bittersweet party....only because everytime we are all together with VJ, Christina, and Sarah, and of course all the kiddos, it just reminds us how much we miss them & wish they would move back to AZ. Although VJ & Sarah are definitely where they need to be for the kiddos, it just isn't fair that they are so far away! So, as we do....we make the best of it when we are all together!!!
Poor Vince (Jr) had just rolled back into town from his work trip to Lareto, after getting stuck in completely stopped traffic on the 35 for hours....and we put him right to work. All Vince wanted was some of VJ's special chicken fajitas.....and had been waiting all week for them. Oh, and some fresh pico too! So, being the trooper, he got home (exhausted) and got right to work! THANKS...we appreciated it!!!! :)
Reunited......Charles is living in San Antonio right now for work, and Patty is still in Brownsville until Katrina finishes up this year of school. Then they will move up to SA as well. So, for now they enjoy their time together on the short weekends that they get!
Kids.....being kids!! They were posed all pretty earlier....then BAM!
Christina with Paisley....and champ! Good Auntie!
"Storm"....this is Christina's friend Rachel. Hilarious Rachel!! It was a blast FINALLY meeting her, as I had heard sooooo many stories about Rachel and Christina growing up! The first night we were there, Rachel heard we were in town and rushed over to say hi! We missed her on our last visit, so she wanted to make sure she got her "Uncle Vince" time in! We stayed up laughing with her for hours! And the stories.....on my gooooosh! The first night we watched the Key & Peele skit of "I Said B****.." and laughed and laughed....and tonight Rachel had her own "I Said..." skit for every scenario that you can imagine. So funny!!
Aaaahhhhh.....loving aunt!!!
Best buds!!!!
Yes I was there too!
Vince, the neph Luke, and VJ
Stacy, Vince, Charles, Patty, Christina & Paisley
Trouble.....
Sis's
So, leave it to VJ to entertain the kids with some crazy game of "stuff this big cracker in your mouth all at once and whoever chews it up and swallows it all first wins" without spitting any out of course! Not only did they think this was hilarious, but they were way delirous and wired and tired and crazy. So, it was really funny watching them! Such great parents we all are :)
Drake won!
What a fun night....we had a blast!! All the kids ended up staying there and having a sleepover for the night. Drake had the best spring break ever! Getting to spend a week with his brother & family was the best thing in the world for him! Definitely something we should make an annual tradition! We left the next afternoon....sad and missing everyone already....but with such great memories...and getting to meet the newest member of the Hearns!!! :)
