My parents came in to Fayetteville Friday. My mom had a conference in Virginia and my dad came along. They were here for about 5 days. Man, that was not long enough...not at all.
Saturday - We were invited to a BBQ for our friend Charles Taijeron. He came to visit Jay's cousin, Therese. It was a great little reunion. We got to meet up Ash and her family. My mom and dad had a great time. My dad got to meet up with a guy that was in his engineer unit in the guard. My parents are very well known people and they really know their family history and relatives. Jay and I got to meet our relatives that have moved out here to Fayetteville.
Sunday - We went to 930am mass. Than we drove to my Auntie Reese's place in Goldsboro. My mom hasn't seen her sister in about 7 years. My dad cooked a fantastic lunch. Our menu was shrimp in butter & soysauce, mussels & crab in coconut milk, pika salad, okra in fine'dene, crab poke' and kimchee. Gardner also bbq'd some steaks that were super yummy as well. We were stuffed. We had some good laughs and went down memory lane. Tish and I told stories of our adventures in Malojloj. The boys played cornhole. We played Rock Band too. That was loads of fun!
Monday - We took my parents around town. We went to the 82nd Airbone Musuem and to see the planes. Than we did a little shopping. Ciena, better be happy with all the clothes she got...spoiled!!! My biha-girl also got lots of clothes too. Dame also was spoiled with two new xbox games.
Tuesday - Dame and I both played hookie from school so we could spend as much time as we possibly can with them. I took my mom to do more shopping and my dad chilled at home with Dame. They both did not want to go shopping.
Today I was so sad that I just wanted to stay in bed. I miss them already. The sacrifices we have to make to better our future.
OMG!! *drools* food looks yummm-aayy!
