Invasion of the In-Laws

We had visitors from the North this past week. I must admit, when they said they were going to be staying at the house, I hyperventilated a little bit. I didn't know where we were going to put 7 extra people in my 1000 sq ft home. But I was assured by all that it didn't matter, they wouldn't care where they slept and all would be fine. Well, turns out, they were right.

We had a great visit with my FIL, SIL, BIL, two nephews, niece and one of the nephew's girlfriend. I think they enjoyed the ranch life as well. We took them to see our new babies....


And we went fishin' in the tanks...





And I colored my nephew's hair....(what's an aunt for, right?)


And helped my niece with her Texas homework project (must get picture of a buffalo). Well, hello, we have buffalo across the road from our house! Easy cheesy assignment Ms. Teacher Lady!


Fun was had by all. The last of the fam left yesterday evening. Back to runnin' around the house in our drawers!

It looks like they had a wonderful time, I bet they will be talking of it for weeks.
That was nice of you to have them over.

It does look like everybody had a good time! That is so cool that you have buffalo close by.

Is your house really 1000 sq ft? B/c I'm pretty sure our house is smaller than that. Fo'real!

Hahaha buffalo? Don't they smell real bad. I think theres only one farm around here that has a few of them. They smell bad. You can smell the farm in the summer from a long ways away.

Yes buffs smell like hell.

But that last picture will be one she cherishes--that would make a great "what I did over break" story

A visit is great... running around the house in your drawers (or less)--- Priceless.

You were all making memories--that is priceless! No one will remember your small house, only the fun they had!

As a future giver of easy cheesy assignments, that buffalo pic would make me sooo happy! That pic is adorable!

Do all cowgirls live in a 1000 sq foot house? It seems all the ones I love to check in on have the same size house, including me. I think we know our priorities that's all.

It looks like a good time was had by all... But I bet you were happy to just get back to your drawers.
You and I are a lot alike, girl!

That's my idea of livin'.. ;-)

(And the buffalo and your neice? Priceless! How many kids get to do that?!?!)
