Sister Weekend 2008

The Patterson sisters

My mother-in-law, Rita, takes a trip with her sisters every year, and this year we were lucky enough to have them come and see us for a few days! We are so far away from the Orbison family, and it was so special to have them come out for a visit. We were excited to show them the new house, but mostly just to visit and catch up. I am so glad they came, as it was nice to see Rita in a different light away from her home and hanging out with her sisters:) They are so much fun together!! It was neat to get to hear stories from their childhood and see pictures from family times when Silas was growing up. We were so blessed to get to spend time with these women who are so much fun and have so much wisdom to share. Tyson got lots of extra love and attention too, which he didn't mind one bit! We were all so sad to see them go, but look forward to getting back together at the holidays:)

We went to the park here in town and Tyson got to feed the ducks and geese for the first time. He loved watching them chase the pieces of bread. There were some pretty ferocious geese out there!!!

Geese are a little scary. So are ducks, esp. the ones with their brains on the outside of their heads! Remember those at Chisolm Park in TX when we were little?? Really scary.

Geese are super scary! We have to fend them off every time we try to feed the ducks. I had one (or maybe a couple-- they all look alike) at work that tried to bite me when I was pregnant, and I actually had students who'd escort me into school. They are freaky little guys.
