Stephen's parents, Hal and Beverly, drove all the way up from Oklahoma to join us for New Years weekend. We were so glad they did and had a terrific time with them. We are already hoping it will become an annual event. :)
Their first day in town we went to Bellacino's for lunch then took a tour of town with major stops at Truman and ATSU. Daddy led our crew (missing a few, but still a pretty good little crowd) around both campuses telling stories. I am still regretting that I didn't get video. I may have to ask him to do it all again. :) And, as you can see from the photos, the balmy weather was over and gone. The wind was howling and it was COLD! But, we still had a lovely day.

That evening we gathered for a big meal together and got to hear a lot of Hal's funny stories. :D What a joy to have Hal and Beverly with us.
