Visitation

So  yesterday my Mom and sister Malorie came up to visit us ! It was so nice to see them! We went out to lunch at Toms work , so we could see and have lunch with him. Then us girls and Ty went out and did a little shopping. I love shopping. Then we came home and went to pick up Tom. Then we played some Dummy Rummy and ate dinner. Malorie, just loves to play and hold Ty. But in this picture I think they were both tired. ha ha I thought this was super cute. She looked ready to fall asleep also. It was great to have them both come up I enjoyed the time spending  with them both. Love you guys.

♫ ♪ ♫ Old Man River ♫ ♪ ♫

For a while now I have nicknamed my dad, Old Man River. I heard it in part of a song as a child. At least I think its part of a song, it has a tune. ha.  So when Tom and I would go down to SLC and stayed at my parents house. My mom would always say call your dad down here ( to the downstairs ) and we will play a game. So it began the Old Man River tune to call him, and it stuck. Its a special nickname that I use quite often now.  The best part is, its usually only I who call him that, till now. I was on the phone with my mom the other day and as we were chatting she told me hold on. I am used to the "Hold On", as she has 4 other smaller children to attended too. Next thing I knew shes telling me that Malorie,8, gave her a note. The note read. " Mom, I am super bored. Can I please play on Old Man Rivers Laptop? I m really really bored.". HAHA  ( I can only assume my mom was on the desktop while talking with me. ) I can't believe that Malorie used the Old Man River, that she had caught on too me calling dad that. Oh my. I laughed and laughed. 
Now I do not call my dad Old Man River because hes getting old.  Early 40 s are not old. :D  So I am curious who else is using my clever term, I will have to find out. Love you Old Man River ♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪
