Our Weekend with the Gibbs!


























Last Friday Kevin, Mallory, & I made a trip to Sierra Vista, Arizona to visit the Gibbs family. If you are a follower of our blog then you know that these are our really good friends that we met here over 2 years ago. They moved to Arizona in August & luckily we have been able to see them a few times since they moved. Well they will be moving again to Kileen, Texas in just a couple of weeks (that's Army life) and we weren't sure when we would see them again so we went to visit them for the weekend. Another big reason for our visit was to meet their new son, Mack. He was born on March 2nd and we had to meet that little guy before they moved.
We had such a great time. It was so bitter sweet because we knew the whole time that it was the last time we would all be together for a while. Jeremy will be deployed to Afghanistan in June & Julia will be moving back to Alabama so we'll be spread apart.
We enjoyed a nice, relaxing weekend. Mallory & Mattox had a blast together like they always do. They play so well together and have so much fun. We always enjoy watching those two play & listen to their laughs & giggles. We of course, had fun talking & laughing with Julia & Jeremy while holding & loving on sweet baby Mack.
On Friday night, they treated us to dinner at Texas Roadhouse which was so yummy & then we watched the new James Bond movie after the kiddos were in bed. Saturday, we started the day at the Aquatic Center. It is inside & perfect for the little ones. Mack even got to get in the water. He slept the whole time but you could tell he was enjoying the warm water. The girls had a blast splashing & going down the slide. The adults had fun watching the kiddos, talking, & enjoying the hot tub (it was perfect....not too hot). The rest of Saturday included a yummy lunch, hanging out, and a bbq with some their friends. Sunday morning was nice & relaxing and then we headed to brunch around 11. We enjoyed some delicious food & then it was time to say our good-byes which made us all sad.
We are going to miss them terribly but we will definitely be seeing eachother again! We see reunions in our future!
