Visitors, visitors!!!!




We had a surprise visit today!!!! Aunt Judy is home from Connecticut, and her and Great Grandma Matis came over. All afternoon we played, played played!!! We had a lot of catching up to do. Judy's kids (our cousins) are really doing neat things right now. Her daughter, Jenny, is on a cruise performing in several shows. She'll be doing this for 6 months and basically traveling the world- Africa, Australia, Mylasia, etc. She's making a killing too!!!! What a great experiece! Her son, Brian, performs in the Winter Guard at Michigan State. He was just in town 2 weekends ago and we were able to see him perform. I don't know very much about music (bare with me), but he's one of the guys that would be performing in the pit that can do about 100 different instruments. We saw him use all sorts of drum sticks on a xylophone?? I think that's what it was.... gosh, I'm bad, but it looked impossible. What a talent! Anyways- it was the coolest thing!! It was such a nice afternoon catching up.
Now, for Great Grandma Matis, who is in her late 80's and doing absolutely wonderful- however, she did throw her back out last week bowling, but seriously who's 80 something and bowls regularly, in several card clubs, and keeps up with all of the Matis festivities. I have no idea how she does it, but she's one busy lady and we're so lucky to have her!
