An Amazing Night.....Amazing In Laws!

This Christmas, Chris and I got an envelope from Rita and Leroy....inside was a LARGE gift certificate to Fleming's steak house and a hotel stay in at Home wood suites in Brentwood. Needless to say we were very excited!
We planned it as soon as we could! So, Friday, January 6th, Rita and Leroy met us at our house in Spring Hill at 5:00. Chris and I kissed our babies goodbye and headed for Nashville.
At Fleming's, we enjoyed the most amazing steaks. Mine was a fillet Oscar and Chris had a bone-in ribeye. We found our new favorite red wine and enjoyed hot chocolate lava cake!
But, the date wasn't over! We drove to Brentwood to stay at the Homewood suites. Not only was it just the two of us for the whole night, but we were also able to watch whatever we wanted on T.V. We finally rolled out of bed at 9:45 to catch the continental breakfast before 10:00. Then, back to bed until check out time! We never get this treat with three sweet kiddos, so we loved every minute of it!
We headed south knowing this amazing date must end, so we asked Rita and Leroy if we could meet up with them at Target in Franklin(so that I could do a little kid free shopping for Harry's baby shower). After hugs and kisses, we learned that when they stayed at our house they had a "cleanup" day. I was so embarrassed. Working full time and being a Mommy of 3, cleaning is the first to go! But, when we got home, I kissed that emotion behind and LOVED the neatness!!!!!
Then I opened the refrigerator to find fruits, veggies, milk, and more! The pantry was full too! Can you believe these people? But, wait there is more!!!!
While Leroy was vacuuming he found that our vacuum really sucked...not dirt (hee hee)...but has been about to leave us soon. So, we came home to a NEW VACUUM!
Seriously, how do you properly thank your Mother and Father in-law for all this. . . maybe put it in a blog for the world wide web to see?
Thank you Rita and Leroy!!!! You gave as an AMAZING gift!
(How's next weekend look for you? hee hee)
