Holiday weekend

This past week has been a blast! My sister, bro in law and niece came into town last week, and I drove probably 1,000 miles going back and forth to see them. But it was pretty fun and relaxing! I did a lot of swimming, playing games, chasing nieces and nephews and of course--eating. After all, that's what we Wallace's do best, right? Leah has gotten so big and is still debating if I'm ok or not. I took Thursday off and relaxed with everyone. I went on this early morning bike ride on Thursday in my hometown, which was pretty interesting. All these memories from growing up there came flooding back (stronger than ever before-maybe I hadn't been in Cleburne for a long, long time). I started remembering who lives where, where I hung out with so and so. The whole being grown thing finally hit me I guess, and it was nice not to care if I saw someone I knew. On Saturday, we had a double baby shower for Hillary and my cousin Amber, which turned into a college football-watching party (as always). Hill, Logan and Leah left on Sunday, but I had some friends come down to Cleburne to hang out on Labor Day. We had fun! I got a good little Texas sunburn and also went sailing last night. I think I officially recharged my batteries! It's been a long but exciting week!
