Sister Weekend!!

BIG NEWS- We have a date for Chris' return!  Assuming nothing changes (which is ALWAYS a bad thing to assume)- he'll be back July 14th!  Yippee!

In the meantime, I've been chipping away at the end of my internship hours and having a blast with tons of company.  Mom and Dad came for a few days last month, some family friends came a day after they left, and Blair was just here for my birthday!  Great times were had by all, but Blair's trip is freshest in my mind so here are some pics of an amazing week with the greatest sister:)

She flew in Wednesday night and I just HAD to spend Thursday showing her all around!  She'd never been before so I showed her around base and Ghent.  We went to Central Meats and bought food to cook for dinner that night, and she ended the night with some pretty serious Betty-snuggle time:)  After working a half day Friday, the weather was kinda icky so we painted pottery at Glazenfyre and went to the Khedive Rodeo.  It was such a blast! Sure, Blair may have wanted a Virginia-filled week but we added in a little Texas;)

We hit the beach on Saturday!  The arts festival was on the boardwalk and we walked around, got some ice cream, and had fun being silly:)
Sandcastles in the saaaaaaaaand!

Our dear friends Adam and Jenny had us over for dinner on Saturday night and grilled a wonderful dinner.  We relaxed on Sunday with church and dogs on the beach to prepare for my birthday yesterday...which was AWESOME!!  Blair and I got up and out to be at Busch Gardens when they opened.  Neither of us had been before and we had SUCH a great time!!!  Because we got there early, we got onto all the good rides with hardly any waiting and still had time to see a show, shop some, AND re-ride the Griffon ride three times! We met Tori for dinner at the Melting Pot, then sweet Haley surprised me with cake and champagne afterwards. What a sugar and fun-filled day!
