They say that life is mostly the same, old boring routine punctuated here and there with highs and lows. We've had both this last week. But the best part of the week began Wednesday when Heidlebeere and her kids showed up on our door step!
It is so nice to have them here. They drove out and it only took them two days. Sure feels good to get out of the car after all that. Brombeere commented the other day how nice it is to have the sound of little kids laughing, playing and having fun - so nice to have them around. Took them a little bit to warm up. One of the draw backs to not living closer. But once they did it has sure been fun.
They were here Wednesday night and then drove over to see Blaubeere for a bit. Then they came back. Last night we made shish kabobs for dinner - everybody helped. Some by actually helping, some by staying out of the way. They were good. We did them in the oven and that turned out to be real easy.
I have long maintained that Himbeere is like a cactus; sometimes prickly on the outside but soft as butter on the inside. Its times like this that I think that is really true. He may never admit it, but he likes having his nieces and nephews around.
