Yumminess = Carrabbas

Last night we had dinner with my entire family at Carrabbas!!!!!It was so much fun getting together and having dinner! I seriously LOVE my family... they can get on my nerves at times but overall I really do love my time spent with them. I joke that spending time with Leila and Dillan is the best birth control ever!!! My meal was awesome!!!!! Chad said his was really good too! He always orders something that I do not like...I think he does this on purpose to avoid having to share:) I was just really glad he was off work and able to come!!!! Thanks mom & dad for planning it around his schedule:) Oh... thanks for dinner too...it was delicious!!!!!

We were told we were celebrating the five birthdays within the past two weeks in our family, however my dad did a good job at turning it into a celebration for Chad passing his test!!!! Yes we are ALL excited for him. It was pretty emotional for me because we both know he could not have finished his training and test without the help from my family. After my accident they all stepped up to the plate so to speak and really did whatever had to be done to help us! We really appreciate it and know our words will never do justice to how we feel:) Thank goodness we dont have to repay them for their actions:) Dad joked with me that he was going to start charging rent while I was staying with them!!! Ha ... he knows mom would NEVER allow it and yes dad she is the BOSS!!!! At one point during my hospital stay, Chad was thinking about giving up... my parents encouraged us to stick with it ...they volunteered to do whatever we needed to make it work. I am soooo glad we have made it through and he has finished it all!!! It has not been easy on any of us and looking back I realize everybody made sacrifices for us... they have not gone unnoticed!! Chad tried to express our thankfulness on behalf of both of us last night... I just hope they all heard how much we appreciated it!!!! Family is SO important to me...they always have been..lately I realize just how important it is to have them around!!!
