Welcome Home, Uncle Mike!

Abbi and her Uncle Mike!

Abbi, Uncle Mike, and Amber (Mike's Girlfriend & Abbi's new buddy!)

My brother Mike and his Girlfriend, Amber, came down from Bremerton, Washington, to visit over the last weekend! It was a lot of fun! We met them at Lagoon on Saturday for Frightmares. Then we did some family stuff on Sunday. Then we did Gateway Mall and dinner at Tepanyaki on Monday. It was a very short trip, and I was very sad to see them go on Tuesday morning, at 6 am. Hopefully Uncle Mike can come home for Christmas. Abbi had the best time with her uncle and her new buddy, Amber. This was the first time I had met Amber. She is in the Navy along with my brother, and had just gotten home from a 4 month tour on a Naval Ship. She is a surgical tech for the Navy, and they were doing surgeries for civilians of many countries in Southeast Asia. It was quite the experience from what I gathered. Anyway, she was a sweetheart, and it was fun to meet her, finally! Her family is from a small town outside of Twin Falls, Idaho. It is nice that her hometown is just hours from our Mikey's. They were able to see both families in one trip! I am sure they are wiped out after the week they had! I just can't wait to see my bro again, though! I love having him home!
