In March, my father-in-law, Rick, came to
visit, and we had a wonderful weekend with him! We are so grateful that he
came to see us, and we loved having him in our home. His
weekend here started out with an amazing tour of the area from the backseat of
the F/A-18D Hornet! Okay, technically it was from the F/A-18D Hornet simulator, but it certainly
felt like we were flying because the cockpit was real and the
graphics were unbelievably lifelike. It was really neat to get a glimpse of what Kevin does when he's in the jet.
On Friday night,
we had the pleasure of seeing Little Texas in concert about half an hour away from
our house. Kevin's Uncle Dwayne is a member of the band so we like to go to their concerts if they're playing anywhere near us. Some of their
biggest hits are "God Blessed Texas," "What Might Have
Been" and "Kick A Little," and they always put on an awesome show.
We also saw a
movie, grilled outside and even spotted a gator while Rick was here. All in all, a
great O'Brien weekend! (In case you're wondering, the alligator was not
in our neighborhood...whew!)
