Weekend at Humpa and Yaya's

Humpa making Evelyn laugh!

Daddy and Daughter
Evelyn's first encounter with a horse!

This weekend we packed up the car and drove to Humpa and Yaya's house in Wichita Falls. This was the first visit since daddy's return home, so there was a lot of family who wanted to see him safe and sound. When we arrived on Friday the weather was actually fairly warm, so we did a little exploring in the outdoors so Evelyn could see all the pretty horses. But, as Texas winters go, by Saturday morning is was frigid again. Saturday afternoon was lunch and dominos at Nanny's house. The girls put up a good effort, but the men prevailed in winning the domino tournament.

Family recalling memories from their childhood--my favorite was learning Uncle Jay had to dress up as a girl to play with his sisters!
Nanny giving love to her great-grand-daughter!

We decided to head back to OKC on Monday morning--perhaps not the smartest idea. A winter storm was heading south as we were headed north. We met up in Lawton, OK. The street were just wet, but we had ice forming on the car and a nervous mother sitting in the passenger seat! Fortunately we made it all the way home and only had problems getting into our own driveway!! Shaun had to melt the ice on the driveway by pouring hot water on it to be able to drive the car into the garage!! This morning we awoke to a beautiful white winter day--such a change from Okinawa!!
