Visitors and Sausages

Last Wednesday, my mom and step-dad, Steve, flew in to surprise Beemer for Grandparents' Day (at her school). She was SO surprised! She cried and couldn't talk when she first answered the door when they arrived! We had a great visit and spent five days playing hard. We managed to make it to the Science Center, Grandparents' Day, the Zoo, the Art Museum, and the Botanical Gardens. We also fit in time to swim in the hotel pool, attend church and have a birthday party for Audi (pictures of all of this coming soon)! But I think the story of the weekend happened Saturday morning.

We went to breakfast at IHOP before heading to the gardens. Beemer ordered a breakfast with eggs, bacon, sausage and pancakes and proceeded to eat the entire thing without really pausing. At one point, the waitress came to check on our table. We all said we were okay, then Beemer piped up, "And by the way, these sausages are DELICIOUS! They are fantastico!" We all laughed at her exuberance and then continued eating. The next thing we knew, the chef was standing at our table with two more sausages for Beemer and told her they were "on the house." She was thrilled. She even said they were good enough to eat without ketchup, a high complement, eh Kat?

That is so cute, and I think I cried at the thought of her crying when her grandparents surprised her. That is so sweet and will be a life-long memory for your family. Love it.
