Working for the Weekend

Spaghetti sauce faced-kids playing matchbox cars!


Seems I haven't posted anything but a weekend since the holidays. And here I go again!  The week is full of work, school and sleep .. and the weekends are full of fun!

Saturday night we had friends from Bloomington - Erica, Chris and CJ Lockett visit our home!  Chris and Bill worked together in Bloomington and Erica and I have the same role within CCC in different locations (Bloomington and Dallas!).  More ironic yet, Erica's sister, Andi is one of my Supervisors!  Small, small world - that's for sure.

And how fortunate we were that they carved out time to visit with us on their quick weekend trip to Dallas!  Ellie waited all day for CJ to arrive.  And we all know how wonderful she is with the little kids - she took to him like he was her own!  She helped me, followed him so he didn't get into anything and played with anything he wanted!

We had a big pasta and meatballs dinner with salad and bread.  For dessert Ellie and I made Butter Pecan Cupcakes with Trader Joe's Cookie Butter buttercream.  They sure were good!  Since the Lockett family was headed back to Andi's house I packed up leftovers for her to take to Andi's family!
