Weekend in Lubbock

I went to Lubbock this past weekend for Misti's (my sister-in-law) Baby Shower! I flew in to town on Friday, amidst terrible winds and a pretty severe dust storm. Dad picked me up from the airport and we went out to the Wolfforth Chamber of Commerce Business Expo. I had a great evening and got to visit with a lot of people I hadn't seen in a while and finally got to meet Cason, Chris and Liz's baby boy! My Mom will be the President of the Chamber of Commerce next year and so this evening was pretty special and exciting for her. The little town of Wolfforth is really growing and it is really fun to be a part of this time of change and expansion!

Saturday morning I treated myself to a mani/ pedi before getting ready for the shower. Mom and I went to the shower together and had a great time. Misti got so many great presents- lots of super cute clothes and several big ticket items that they were still in need of. It was great to see everyone again and to get to celebrate with Misti and Cody the impending arrival of our first nephew!!! Can't wait to meet Landry Lane!

Saturday night Mom, Dad, Seth, Bailey and I went to dinner at Gilbert's! I love that place and hadn't been there in so long!!! We ate lots of great food and just enjoyed spending the evening together. After dinner we walked over to one of my favorite little shops. I didn't spend any money on this trip but did get some great ideas for a couple of upcoming gifts that I am in need of!

On Sunday, we all got up and went to Church. I love the Church that my parents attend and always enjoy hearing Curtis preach. After church we went to eat at Market Street and then did a little shopping. Mom, Bailey and I then went up to the hospital to see Wendy and Kyle and meet their newest addition, Archer Mathew. I just love getting new cousins!!! While we were visiting Brody, Loren, and Wade brought Brooke up to the hospital to visit her parents and new little brother. It was so special to watch the interaction of Brooke and Archer. She already loves her little brother so much and is going to be such a great older sister! After our fun day of running around Mom, Dad, Seth, and I met Gramps and Grammy at Rosa's for dinner! I miss getting to see my Grandparents so much and always love when we can get together! We had a great time catching up on everything and laughing about things going on around my grandfather's farm! After dinner I shared our exciting news with my grandparents and gave them a picture of our first sono. They were so excited and we all just hugged and cried together!

I totally enjoyed my weekend at home with all of my family! It was so special to get to be a part of Misti's shower and to share this incredible time with them. I can't wait till Gregg and I can return to Lubbock to meet the newest Swift!!!
