Our weekend was slammed pack with some good family times. I had the opportunity to finally meet more of Val's cousins, their spouses, and children. Other than Nana's siblings, I have officially met the entire Spooner clan.
Everyone, immediate and extended family, came to see Nana this weekend. We all surprised her by cramming into her small hospital room (24 of us), singing happy birthday, and delivering cake and an oversized Hallmark card. Nana will turn 79 on Friday! It was wonderful seeing her smile and in good spirits.

My parents, also, came into town today to deliver furniture. My grandmother's house recently sold and now all the furniture is being disbursed between family members. Val and I were lucky to snag her kitchen table; and since my parents replaced one of their bedroom suits with one from Ma's home, they brought us their extra bed frame and mattress set (both of which have not been used but a handful of times...mainly by us).
So (hence the name of this post), we had a little home update today. It may not be a Hampton, but we like it.

Thanks, Mom & Dad for bringing all of these wonderful additions to us today!

That is so nice to get "new" things especially those that have family history. Looks great! Want to see it in person some day!
