This last weekend we went to Plainview for Papa Schmitz's 50th b-day celebration. There was a golf tournament, an open house at the golf course, and afterward family and friends at their house. We asked to have Jazmin for the weekend so she could share in the celebration and meet our family, and unfortunately, she ended up being a bit under the weather. So I stayed back at the house with the kids, my sister and sister in-law, and a great family friend (as we used to call her our 2nd mom) Carol. Even though it would have been nice to be outside at the golf course, and enjoying the sunshine, it was a wonderful time catching up and just spending time with her. While growing up our families were so "melded" together, and did everything with each other. We called ourselves the McHeins' - a combination of our last names. We did make it out to the open house, and stayed for the get together at the house too, but we didn't stay overnight like we intended, instead we drove home. It was a VERY long day, but it was great to see so many friends and family-from all sides together having a great time. Once again Happy Birthday Papa...ya ole' fart!
