Most of you know that the kids and I got to spend 2 weeks in MS recently, but i've been so consumed with settling back in at home that i'm just now adding pictures! These are some of the highlights of our trip!



Grammy suprised the kids with a new 'toy' while we were there. They enjoyed riding around the yard and through the woods on the new Easy-Go. Wyatt even learned to drive it, although I didn't enjoy that part!





We spent a day at Uncle Ed and Aunt Brenda's house and this was lots of fun! Uncle Ed and Wyatt got to visit a hobby shop that had some wonderful trains! And we each got to take a turn riding in the 'cool car' as Wyatt called it!





After our visit we took the kids to the beach for their first time. Unfortunately it was getting dark when we got there, but you can see that Wyatt didn't mind! He had so much fun!







Grammy and Natalie




Grammy also put the kids to work in the yard--but of course they loved it!




And here is one of our 'pets' that we caught while at Grammy's house. The poor lizard was held captive for 3 days before I finally convinced the kids he would enjoy being with his lizard friends more than with us.




Chris worked hard to make a huge brush pile to burn while we were there, but it was too big to roast marshmallows on. So he made the kids a smaller one close to the house.


And of course we had to do a 'photo shoot' of the 3 cousins together. Unfortuantely Natalie was afraid of the bugs and Wyatt was certain he heard a monkey in the woods, so it didn't turn out as well as i'd hoped, but we got some cute ones.














And of course, the highlight of the trip was sweet baby Nolan.

What great pictures!! It's always so much fun to be with family! How fun that you got to go to the beach too! Looks like you're going to have to do that again! Nolan is precious and the three cousins looked like they were having fun together despite the "monkey in the woods." Hope Ben survived without you!
