A GOOD LAUGH REDUCES STRESS...

This is what I saw when I looked in the back seat on our way home from Memphis.

 

How cute!  He was snuggling his doggy named Sammy.

Another tired little boy takes a break from doing his homework.

I am so glad we have never given in to the DVD players in the headrest of the cars.  We have some of the best conversations when we are riding down the road together.  It would be a shame to miss those because a silly DVD took over our time.  On really long trips we have taken a portable but that is rare for us.

I hope the rain comes and goes before Saturday so we can go camping.  The boys have been looking forward to a camping trip but our schedule has been hectic.  If we wait too long I don't think I will fit in the tent!

A TRIP TO MEMPHIS

We made a quick trip back to Memphis to see family.  Unfortunately, my dad is not doing so well so we made a weekend trip to see him and my mother and lots of family we love and don't get to see often enough.
 
We had lunch with Aunt Teresa (my sister), Uncle Clint and their sweet little boy Winston. 

You can't go to Memphis and not eat BBQ! 

Andrew was digging in!  If you look at Mason's plate, you will see he finished his sandwich before I could even get my camera ready!

I must have liked those ribs...and the beans...and the cole slaw :-)

Andrew took this picture of my sweet sis and I.  Good times :-)
