This post is a tad belated, but in August we got to spend two really fun weekends with Whitney's niece and nephew, Maddie and Tommy, in two different states.In the first weekend, they came here to Arlington and pretty much showed us up on Rock Band for most of the weekend. We warned them that it was a bit harder than Guitar Hero, but they didn't even seemed phased as Tommy's vocals rocked the apartment and Maddie drummed circles all around us. The rest of the weekend consisted of a water park, a lot of sugar and junk food, a movie in the park, The Dark Knight and cards with The Benedicts.
Two weeks later, we stayed at Jeff & Debbie's in Norman. It was a nice relaxing weekend that Whitney and I really needed. It was fun just sitting around and watching movies, swimming, and putting Legos and puzzles together. Spring Creek welcomed us with open arms on Sunday and we got to visit with some of Whitney's extended family in Oklahoma City. Preston did a great job with the sermon and it was good to see all of the Graham's old friends and family again.
I've obviously have been around Maddie and Tommy before, but it was a lot of fun for just the four of us to hang out with each other without having to celebrate a holiday or a special occasion. It was exciting to know that soon I'll be their uncle and that there would be plenty more of opportunities to spoil them! :)
