Off to PaPa's

We spent the weekend at PaPa's. Will met a huge portion of his extended family this weekend. He met cousins - too many to count- and his Aunts - Donna, Karen, and Paula. After watching Hope, he decided Papa was GREAT! Papa always had two little shadows - Hope and Will. We discoved Will watched Hope. If Hope likes you that's good enough for him.

We had a great time. A chance to send time with family. The kids loved the chance to spend time with cousins - video games and pokemon ruled. I thought I'd lose my mind if I saw another sponge bob or pokemon TV show. It made me appreciate our cable free house. The kids don't veg in front of the TV when you just have 5 channels. They just try to veg in front of video games.

We had a Memorial Day Picnic at the lake. It was so nice. We got the best spot under two cottonwoods and right next to the playground. After dinner, grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, we had a chance to sit around and catch up with everyone. In the afternoon, we were sent running to the cars due to a downpour. We headed back to Papa's. Alabama is in the middle of a severe drought so it was kinda nice to get drenched in a downpour. Too bad we were in Missouri instead of Alabama.
