Together Again (for a few days)

I suppose I should probably give an update on how Dellas' visit home went, and it went fabulously :) He flew in Wednesday around noon so we were able to grab a quick lunch and run home (before I returned to work) for Del to reunite with his pup. Funny thing is, Oakley ran right past Del and straight to me! But once he gave Del some sniffs and they started playing together, I could tell it all came rushing back to Oak of who this guy was and they enjoyed each other's company the rest of the week.
Since I had to work Wed, Thurs, and Friday, Dellas did his thing during the day which included, washing my car a few times, replacing the drip system in the front flower bed, mow the lawn a couple times, clean up the exterior of the house and a few other odds and ends. I sure appreciate all the things he can do around the house!
Saturday, Dellas invited an old Norco co-worker over for sourdough pancakes which were DELICIOUS! That afternoon, Del, Jake (his best friend), Oakley and I went up to Lucky Peak for some fun in the sun. Jake had his jetski running so they dumped it in the water and took turns cruising around while I relaxed on the beach. In between jetski runs, Del would swim around with Oakley too.

Saturday evening my oldest sister, Jeni, and her two sons, came into town to stay with us for a night until her husband flew into Boise Sunday morning. (They were on their was south to Jake's family's cabin.) We had a little BBQ at our house and visited for the evening. I bought my nephews a couple of Super Soakers for my oldest nephew's bday (turned 11 on Sunday) so they chased each other around the neighborhood for awhile too.
Sunday afternoon Del and I were able to stop by his aunt and uncle's house to have lunch with them and Gma & Gpa Clark who were in town from San Diego for about a week. It was a special visit since it was the first time we'd seen them since the wedding! Almost 2 yrs ago! We hope to make it down to SD this fall, but who knows what our schedule will be like for Del's last semester.

All in all, it was a great 5 days! It made me feel a little more normal to have hubby home and be doing everyday things with him. My next visit is next weekend and it will be the last trip I take without bringing him home with me!
