A very big weekend

We had a very busy weekend. It started off with Paige having her 2 month shots. Jay and I were both there so it wasn't so bad for us that is. Paige really was a trooper. She now weights 10 pounds 12oz and is 22 1/4 inches long. She is a growing girl. When we got back from the doctors office our friends Bryce, April and their boys were here from Cincinnati, they flew in for the spring game. We had a busy night because Jay and I hosted game night. Our neighbors Dennis and Theresa came over and so did Joe and Jamie. We hung out, played games and ate ribs that Jay smoked all day. We didn't get to bed until 1 am so of course Miranda had to wake up Paige at 8am so we all could get ready to go to Lincoln. We all car pooled to Lincoln because Jay and friends were going to the Spring game. We meet for lunch in the old market in Lincoln. While we were having lunch the BIG STORM came rumbling through. It rained so hard the power went out for a bit in the restaurant. Miranda, Paige, Devis and Pirro headed back to Omaha right after lunch. We had just hit the road when Jay called saying they cancelled the Spring Game. We were expecting tornadoes so it was safer this way. We all made it back safe to the Helmick household. Alex was in Omaha for drill that weekend so he came over and Sara's track meet was cancelled half way through so she was able to get to our house before the second storm hit. Looks like another game night at the Helmick's!! Man was it fun. We all got up the next morning and went to church. Bryce, April and boys flew back after lunch and Devis, Sara and Pirro headed back to Lincoln after church. Jay and I relaxed the rest of the day until church group that night. What a crazy weekend but so worth it. We are happy to say that the tornadoes didn't hit Omaha. It was great seeing Bryce, April and their boys, Devis, Sara, Pirro, Alex, Chris, Julie and Kim. We also had a nice surprise visit from Kim and Blair. Thank you all for a wonderful weekend!!
