Weekend Visit from Mom and Dad

My parents came down to our house to visit Travis and me. It was very nice to have them stay at our house. While with us they helped us with getting some things from Lowes. Travis and I don't have a truck, so it was nice that my parents have one for us to use. We got a grill and some piping stuff for Travis to set up a sprinkler system in our backyard. While the guys loaded the truck, my mom and I decorated the back with red flags. I think we went overboard! :) But we had fun doing it. We wanted to make sure everyone could see the pipes sticking out so that no one followed to closely. I think it worked.


Everyone, but I, chipped in and unloaded the truck. I took the pictures.
Here is Travis getting the grill out of the truck bed. My mom is back there trying to help Travis.
Just a little bit to go and we are finished unloading the truck.

Here is our lovely grill. I'm super excited to start grilling! I'd rather grill instead of cooking on the stove. :) Now that the weather is getting a little bit cooler, it will be nice to be outside grilling too.

The following day, we all decided to make their drive a little shorter by going to eat lunch and seeing a movie. That way some of the driving time was already shorten by 30 minutes. Travis and I have to drive about 30 minutes to go to a movie theater. So we went to TGIFridays. Here is my mom and dad...aren't they cute together. :)

Here is Travis and I on the other side of the booth. After lunch we went and saw Eagle Eye. That was a pretty good movie. After the movie we bid farewell to my parents. We look forward to another visit from them. My mom took some pictures of Travis blowing out his birthday candles, so I'll have to post those when my mom sends them to me.
