Huntsville, AL

Hi everyone! We fell off the face of the earth for a minute, but we're back...

Back in February Mimi, William, and I made a road trip (William's first) to Huntsville, AL, to visit all of our lovely relatives: Tommy, Barbara, Stacy, Aunt Jane, Uncle Hayden, Alice, Stephen, Molly, and Elizabeth. It started out a little scary. We had barely gotten to Meridian before William woke up and started crying. We pulled over in Meridian so Mimi could switch to the back seat to entertain Jr. We made it a-ok.

William and I had a fabulous-oh time staying at T & B's house. Jr. really bonded with everybody, especially his Auntie B (Barbara), and I got to go out to shop, eat, play, etc. It was GREAT!! Aunt Jane and Mimi babysat William so Barbara and I could go out for sushi and shopping at the Interiors Market -- FUN STUFF!!! William had a grand time too hanging out on "top of the mountain". We spent three wonderful nights in Huntsville, enjoyed fajitas from Rosie's, family bbq dinner, shopping, margaritas :), and a visit to Mike's "ranch". :)

Against the weather channel's advice we hit the road and ended up driving home in the middle of a band of terrible thunderstorms. 2 words. Zero visibility. However, the rain helped William to sleep almost the whole ride home! We survived!

Thanks to all for a good time AND thanks to Mimi for helping me with William!!
