Last Saturday, while we were out on a family outing....just "window shopping" at IKEA, and getting a few things we needed from Home Depot (both stores happen to be by the airport), we decided to let Jared see the airplains up close....so, Matthew looped around the airport......well, as we got to the passenger pick up area, he started pulling up to the curb....I was feeling sorry for the lady standing on the side of the curb, sure she would be scared to death that some random car was pulling up along side of her, only to realize that wasn't just "some lady".....that was
MY SISTER!!!!!????? I could not believe it.....I had
NO IDEA she was coming....I jumped out of the car, and really made a fool of myself screaming, and acting hysterical....but, I was shocked to see her, and
VERY VERY EXCITED!!!! I asked Matthew if he knew about this....DUH!!!! Of course he knew about it....that was why we were there....but, he was the only one of us to know!!! I have to say, that is the best surprise I have ever had.....Thanks Alisa for coming....I needed that! And, thanks Ryan for letting her come! I know it is hard to be away from each other when you are newly weds.
Alisa in the car....I just had to take a picture to prove it was real!!!
We brought Alisa to one of our favorite waterfall areas.....the weather was gorgeous (on saturday).....we were able to fool her for one day, then the rain set in on Monday.....I think she was sold on moving to this part of the country some day....but with the rain, it may take a little more work from Liz and I!!!
Jared thought it was cool to have his personal teacher with him for a weekend! Alisa is a 2nd grade teacher....this was her spring break time....but, we put her to work, and she helped Jared with his homework!!!
Jared and Kayleigh thought it was fun that Alisa would sit and play play station with them for a while on Sunday morning!
Alisa made us some of her much talked about oatmeal bread.....Yummy!!!!
