So for the past week we had the pleasure of having the first of many visits I'm sure from Geoff's Mom and Dad. Other than my Dad who helped me graciously move down here and a visit over Easter Sunday by my brother and soon to be my very best-est sister Stacy, they are the first of family to travel to see the place we now call home. The week went slow at first then became a whirlwind that we could not stop. Oh how we wished they could have stayed longer.
Alex was in his prime showing Ga-ma and Papa around his new pad. I think his favorite part was playing hockey with his Papa. Who by the way taught Alex how to properly hook your opponent. He hasn't quite got it down yet but it won't be long. Power naps with Dad and Papa. And of course running through the sprinkler with Ga-ma to relieve the humidity. Who now says she needs a sprinkler like that for the side of their house!
We ENJOYED showing them around the base and to the Museum of Aviation. They also saw Geoff's office the active taxiway that you have to drive over to get to the office. Geoff and Dad enjoyed 18 holes of golf on the bases course, where on the 10th hole was some added humor when the head of Dad's six iron decided to take a swim (hilarious!)
We did a lot of lounging around and laughing, Meeting up with Geoff's cousins on Wednesday for dinner and with a sad good bye on Saturday driving them off base to get them on their way. All of us holding back tears....except Alex with his new vocabulary, yelling GOOD_BYE out the back window.
