I made it through my parents visit. I even got the place looking halfway decent by the time they got here. Miracles, all around. 
The visit went pretty well. There was some unsolicited advice as well as cleaning comments (as I predicted) such as, “Your sugar bowl needs a little attention.” :doh
They purchased us a beautiful lilac bush for our front yard, which was nice. It was done in Jackson’s memory so we will always have that reminder of him. That was very nice of them. Plus, I love lilacs and it will be so nice to smell them each spring when it blooms. Yay!
They made it in time for the t-ball game wednesday and took us out to eat at one of the casinos buffets afterward. A free meal is a free meal, right? And we had a good time. And H was so excited to see his grandparents. We took them out to eat last night to TGI Friday’s for an early Mother’s Day celebration. That was also a lot of fun and my dad bought us a round of margaritas which of course helped us to enjoy ourselves.
They just left, heading back west to that crazy placed called California. I’m not sure when we’ll see them next. We plan to go down there and visit in August so that is probably when.
I have my hair appointment in two hours. 
I am so excited for it. I even woke up in the middle of the night last night and had a hard time going back to sleep for thinking about it. Provided I look halfway decent, I will consider posting a picture. But I have picture issues. As in, I don’t like looking at myself. 
We’ll see.
