Samantha Visits!

Our terrific niece Samantha flew in from Texas last night! We have been looking forward to seeing her and catching up after not seeing each other since February.

Matt picked her up from the airport and thanks to our fans to move the hot air we were able to get a decent night's sleep (high recorded was around 105 degrees yesterday with a low of only about 70 degrees).

We enjoyed a low-key morning followed by meeting Matt at Chipotle for lunch with a Jamba Juice treat for dessert. After lunch Samantha and I were able to fit in a quick round of Ticket to Ride (we both love playing games with this one being our favorite) before we packed her up and took her to meet up with her girlfriends for a fun sleepover tonight. (Oh the squeals of excitement when the girls were reunited - SO FUN!) Later she'll leave on the church's Jr. High Summer Safari retreat for 5 days.

We love Chipotle!

What a treat to be able to spend a bit of time with Sam. We'll have one more opportunity to be with her next week prior to her returning to Texas. Hooray!!
