Because He Came Home to Visit

Travis came home to visit. In his two weeks of U.S. travels, he got to spend a couple of days with us here in good ol' Oklahoma. And boy, were we happy to see him!
 
After a Thompson-style gathering at his folks' house with the requisite hugging and photos, he hopped on the party bus with the cousins to celebrate Toby Neal's birthday (and Jake's too!). We spend the evening talking and dancing (Travis, Julie, and I TORE IT UP!) and laughing and laughing and laughing :-) Before we knew it, it was time to get back on the party bus and head home. After a Taco Bell stop, I got dropped off at home while Alec took Travis and Jeri to their respective homes.
 
After a good day in the basement of the Alpha Gam house (Go Greek, Go Gam!) and a pink squirrel with my girls at the Mont, Travis stopped by to meet Bailey and Daphne and see Bird's house now that I have moved in and gotten settled. The last time he saw it, it was still technically a bachelor pad. So, as you can see from the photos, Bailey has a new best buddy and we got a chance to hang out with our awesome cousin before sending him back to his home around the world. So glad he borrowed the car and came by!
 
And, if you haven't checked out his adventures, DO!

I think that second pic was taken just before she knocked over my water with her tail! Then, you had to clean it up. I guess that is just one of the joys of being the owner of a big puppy :)

I'm really glad I got to meet Bailey. And, I still feel sorry for Daphne. I hope she starts to feel better about Bailey soon. haha.

So awesome to hang with you and Bird during a normal night at home. I look forward to more visits! You two are awesome. And, yes, you made the house a home when you moved in :-) Good changes, indeed.
