Good times

Yes, 'Good times' is synonymous with JJ Walker but also the visit we just received from our OKC friends. Carmen, Courtney, and Kacey all came with 4 kids total in tow. It was a very quick visit (one night) but so great. They gave thumbs up on the new house and JJ was real excited to play with the big kids (2.5 to 4.5 years old). We did not do too much last night but this morning we decorated the house. It looks so good! They helped with placing pictures on walls and displays all over. I really appreciate their efforts to get here and the extra effort it takes traveling with kids. They left today at 3 pm so they were here just under 24 hours. It is normally a 4:45 drive but on the way here it took them 6:15. They made better time today.

Robert and I are having lunch with the YoungLife guy on Monday so we will see where that leads. Also, Robert's company is starting a softball team and we are going to look into it so I might be able to do that. Opportunities are starting to come that would make it easier to make friends. JJ and I are going to the city (Little Rock) on Thursday for his 9 month wellness check-up (he is just over 10 months). We nixed the appointment here that we were supposed to go to yesterday. I had a referral for this doctor in LR and plan on a better experience. There are four doctors in this office. Sadly, I will be looking forward to Thursday all week to go to the big time city. It is fine here and everything but LR is the environment that I am used to. I hope JJ and I can make a day out of it and go shopping a bit after the appointment. Robert and I finally received some $$ for the tv from the moving company and went to Best Buy to purchase it. It was not in stock, as nothing is for this small store, and that is what you get in a smaller town like this one. You always have to wait to get big items shipped in.

Robert is still doing fine with his job. He shaved his beard last week so he has a new look. JJ continues to be great. I must brag on my little dog Scout. She was so well behaved with seven extra people in the house. The girls were so impressed with her and said she was a great dog. Scout had a rough start her first year of life but she is a great pal to have around now at the ripe 'ol age of almost-4. I love to watch her and JJ play together. JJ will rummage through Scout's play basket and Scout sits patiently to see what JJ will pull out for her to play with. What a good girl!
