Best Day in a Month

Today has been a blessing. First, Cody and Macey had friends to play with while my friend Chelsea found out if she's having a boy or a girl (...I'll let you find out from her:)).
Then she took Cody during Macey's nap (and Macey actually took a nap, she woke up at 5:30 so it's a good thing). I seriously haven't had a break during the day in so long it was like a piece of heaven.
My nephew's heart surgery was a success today. I know it was a stressful day for them, but such an important hurdle to cross and we're glad it went smooth.
THEN my friend Michelle had us over for dinner. Delicious and fun!
THEN my friend Emily came to play with the kids before bed. They built a fort and read books.
I'm not sure if everyone thought I had almost lost my sanity or if this was Heavenly Father's way of saying Look, this hard month is almost over, you can do it!
Ben is coming home around midnight on Friday. I CAN'T WAIT.
He has done an amazing job working at the clinic in Montana. They have loved him; I knew they would;) He just loves it because he loves working and he loves working with horses.

This is why I'm sad to be leaving Pullman. Let's face it. You don't come to Pullman for Pullman itself, you come here for the people, who are some of the best on earth and I don't want to leave them!

Carrie, We don't want you to leave either. It is going to be so weird not having you guys here. One of the reasons why we came to Pullman was because we met you and Ben. You guys are the best! yay for Ben coming home.

Carrie, you always look so together. I had no idea what a stressful month it has been for you. If you ever need to drop the kids off here you can. I am totally spoiled and have four mornings a week to myself. I mean it. If you need anything, let me know!
