In my parent's front yard, we had great weather most of the week.
Playing in this swing is where we spent every evening
3 generations on Mother's Day. I'm so thankful to have my Mom in our lives!
Abbie's initial reaction to the sandbox! She got used to it finally and would laugh as we buried her feet in the sand
Chasing my parent's cat, Polly. Her favorite game of the week and motivation for walking!
Walking on my parents deck our last night there. She would reach out toward Mike when she was still far from him hoping he would reach out and hold her so she didn't have to walk any farther!
Daddy and Abbie on Mother's Day
Papa, Nana, and Abbie on Mother's Day
Our vacation to visit Nana Rose and Papa Ray began with a Friday night of Secret Church at The Church at Brook Hills in Birmingham, which was awesome as usual by the way! David Platt truly knows how to bring the Word of God and is annointed each time he preaches, even for the 4+ hours of preaching that Secret Church entails! Nana and Papa babysat Abbie and she spent the night with them in their hotel room, I missed her! My first night away from her all night, a hard night for Momma!
On Saturday we visited family in Alabama before heading to Atlanta for the week. Abbie, Nana, and Papa truly soaked up every single waking moment together! My mom said it was the best Mother's Day present she could ever have. Abbie took her 1st steps the night we got to Atlanta, my dad saw it first, as she was delightfully chasing after my parent's 3 cats. She LOVED them! She loved to grab their tails and then when they would move their tails she'd giggle so hard. She crawled and walked trying to "chase" after them and never gave up on that game the entire week. I got to see some of my friends from home, which was nice, and we had a great time just relaxing and hanging out with family and friends.
