My Parents

So last weekend my parents were here for a visit along with some meetings my dad had to attend. They ventured out and stayed with me at my new apartment...so they spent the entire weekend dancing around boxes. I did have a lot of stuff unpacked when they got there, but there was and still is some stuff that needs to be done. They slept on an AeroBed (thanks Carey!!) in my room and I slept in the living room. Friday I went to work and they attended meetings, then on Saturday my mom and I got up and went to Starbucks and then to Ikea. Our plan was to be done at Ikea before dad got out of his meetings..well it did not end up that way. Lets just say that he had to join us at Ikea and he just LOVED every second of that to pieces!!! Then we went and had a late lunch at Red Robin, then we went and saw Jamie and her baby Mellot.
And after that is where the fun really started...so as most of you know, I got a new car last August. I love it and it loves me most of the time, but last Saturday it did not love me so much. We had gone to WinCo to get some groceries and after getting back in the car, I started my car and it was really jumpy and did not want to shift. So my dad told me to drive it around the parking lot and well it died several times. So we ended up calling TripleA to have it towed..the tow truck finally got to us around 11 and the ride in the tow truck was very interesting! Before this story gets much longer, there was a lot of worry on my end and a lot of frustration on my dads. My parents were planning on going home on Sunday, but they ended up staying till Tuesday. We had my car worked on Monday and it turns out that my computer (which controls the car) had died. So I got a new one and did not have to pay a dime since it was still under warranty!!!! Thank goodness!
So some of the things my parents did for me:
my mom washed dishes
my dad fixed our dishwasher and my shower rod
they bought me some bedding
they bought me a shoerack
they bought me a coffee maker
and some other stuff too.
they helped me move a couch
and my mom was stuck with the annoying task of helping me move my clothes...
they did soooo much for me and i could never thank them enough. they are supportive and loving and always have my best interest in mind, even though I am 25 years old. i cried like a baby when I said goodbye to them Tuesday morning. It was GREAT having them here. God has blessed me sooo incredibly much with my family. I love my parents dearly and cant wait to see them again!!! Thanks for everything mom and dad- I love you both!!!
