Our Saturday started out like the past Saturdays ... Soccer class at 9 am. The class was amazing and the girls love going to soccer. They have a great coach that plays, warms them up, teaches them moves, and talks with them about confidence and team work. After soccer we came home and played nail salon. Both girls had mani-pedi's in purple and pink. Our plan for the day was to drive to Sean's Aunt and Uncles in LA. They invited us over to some play time in their hot tub and dinner. The girls love going places and seeing new things.
Some of you know that Sean had been away in Mississippi for NCO school. He has been gone for the past 3 weeks. So it's just been the girls and I for the most part. Well, Sean surprised me by secretly flying back to LA Friday night (due to the government shut-down). He didn't tell me until Saturday before the girls and I to LA.
I was so excited! So happy that he would be coming home with us. Thrilled that the girls would have their dad back and we could continue our family bonding. We were at his family's house for about an hour and then there was a knock on the door. Aunt Catherine opened the door and to the girls surprise, there was their DAD! They were shocked! S couldn't believe her eyes! M was speechless! He stood there with open arms waiting for hugs, but the girls could not move. So I jumped up and gave him hugs and kisses. S soon was able to move and give her dad a hug. We turned to M and she was gone. All the excitement made her upset and she went and hid behind the door. When we found her, we had a little chat about what happened and she was upset that no one told her that he was coming home. I also believe that M knew that her 'mom' time would be over and she would have to listen to two parents now at home. Soon she warmed up and was able to give her dad a hug.
The girls spent a couple hours in the hot tub splashing around and then we had a delicious dinner outside. We came home with two tired little lovelies.
The girls will get to meet their Aunt Erin this week. We have plans for tons of fun!
