😀Jenise and Phillip visit

 What a lovely chaotic weekend!! Jenise,  Phillip,  and Elliot came up for the weekend  🙂. They got here Saturday morning and stayed until Sunday evening.  Saturday evening the house filled up.  They went to dinner with Desi and brought her with them when they came back.  Then Sara, Brook, and Tracy  came to visit (Elliot) and then Jeanette showed up a little later. Lindsey was in any out, too between working her Uber job. It was crowded and the laughter was just beautiful! It really was a fun crowd to have the privilege of being a part of.  I slipped out and  went to bed while the party was still going because I wanted to get up early and make a big breakfast but then I overslept,  didn't get to until after 9!! When I did get up I started the breakfast while taking a lot of good natured teasing about my lost ability to cook a meal.  I swear,  I dont know how Jess cooks such amazing meals on our awful stove! Plus I almost never cook here and I  don't know where anything is or how to make everything work. Over 3 hours later I served breakfast that was barely edible. Kira came in and said that she was going to taste what I made and rate it in a scale of 1 to 10. She only gave me an E for effort! She didn't even give me a 1!! and she was correct,  it was awful.  Phillip said that he would pay to go out to eat next time they visit. Jeanette and the boys,  with Riley's "girlfriend", showed up right after what turned out to be brunch or lunch and Jeanette and I trimmed Jenise's hair before they left to return to Kansas.  This was all really stressful for Jess. That makes me sad 😔.  I wish Jess could enjoy gatherings like this! But I think that she enjoyed parts of it all,  too. Jess did visit some with Jenise and with Jeanette.  She clearly loves them and they love her. I can understand that she felt overwhelmed when everyone was here.  It will be better when we get this place cleared out more so it feels like there is room for everyone.  I loved every minute of this weekend ❤️❤️❤️.
