Aunt Denise and Uncle Dan's travels brought them back to our house two weeks after their previous visit. And we had an awesome time - again!
Somehow, despite major storms barreling through right as they were driving in from Missouri, Aunt Denise and Uncle Dan arrived safely at our house on a Friday around 5 p.m. They claim not so much as a raindrop hit their windshield that day, even though the skies were dark and ominous all around them the whole way. I am so grateful for their safe travels, because I was truly worried about them all day.
We had an interesting dinner with them again on this second visit. Basically, we went to Pizza Hut, we had to get our own plates, napkins and drink refills because the waitress was so bad, they tried to charge us for three pizzas (we ordered 2), and poor Morgan never got her spaghetti. Sounds horrible, I know, but for some reason it became hilarious when we got in the car to leave and Jeff said, "And this is the better one (Pizza Hut)." Aunt Denise could not stop laughing and she got the rest of us going. Then, Morgan suddenly realized she never got her spaghetti and blurted out, "Hey! Where's my spaghetti?," and before long no one could talk because we were laughing so hard! [Loralee can confirm this because she was on the phone with us and no one could talk because of the laughter so she hung up on us. I'm pretty sure I could hear her eyes rolling at us over the phone.]

So, after the laughfest and getting Morgan to bed, we sat down for another round of Golf. This time, Jeff and I knew their strategy for this game. Jeff still ended up with the worst score at the table, but I came in second ... to Uncle Dan, who, in the final "hole" pulled off this amazing pair of matches:

We seriously just wanted to come to your house...it was so fun and we will come back again. Maybe it will not be a drive thru but a true visit. But THANK you so so much for the time with you guys. I loved the first dinner but the memories from the second one was THE BEST...I still laugh, and I laughed when I was reading this. The best part was Morgan "Where's my speghetti?" and Jeff saying that was the better one,I can't stop laughing everytime I think of it. If it wasn't for the twins party we would have stayed a few days for sure. I wanted another yummy breakfast. :) Thanks again guys and we owe you a visit up here anytime. Hugs from A. Denise
You're welcome! We will take you up on the offer to come up to Rogers City someday!
I have an even better "come from behind to win". Behind 6000 points in dice "farkle", Denise goes over the 10,000 mark, meaning I get one last chance to beat her. Guess what I rolled.....yep six 1's to score 8000 points and beat her. Looked up on internet chances are 1 in 46,000.
Denise took it well.
Uncle Dan
NO I didn't...liar
Denise, you need to take your husband to Vegas!
