Reunion

When Stephen and Bob were roommates at A&M, they formed this secret society called The Scrote Club.  They named themselves co-presidents/co-chairmen and appointed mascots, national and international spokesmen, the works.  Then, Katie and I (who also happened to be roommates) came into the picture.  The Scrote Club has had a few reunions in the past and has added a few more members.  It helps when both co-presidents had THREE MALE OFFSPRING each!!!  It's been many years since we've gotten together with Bob and Katherine de, so we were really excited when they were able to come down and spend a few days with us.  I really should call this post The Scrote Club Reunion, but didn't want that title without the explanation.  

Bob and Stephen had work stuff to do on Thursday, so Katie and I and the boys hung out.  We made the trip out to Chick-fil-a. 

Then, there was lots of Skylanders and Mario Brothers for the older boys during naptime and at-home pedicures for the girls.

When the baby boys woke up, we broke out the swimsuits and let them have at our backyard swimming pool.

When the guys got home, we picked up the babysitters and WENT OUT WITHOUT CHILDREN!

 We took the Hellers out to Taste of Texas, hoping our guests would like it as much as we do.  Bob, in typical "BOB" fashion, ordered The Tomahawk.  It's a big, bone-in ribeye.  He got to pick out his very own, and we even heard the trademark, "medium-rare, emphasis on the RARE." 

We got to celebrate my birthday a little early this year, since I'll be in the hospital and on the DL for awhile. 

I'm so glad our fellow Aggies were able to come for a visit.  I haven't laughed so hard in a long time!
