We had a wonderful time at Mummi and Doc's this past weekend as we celebrated Labor Day and the last weekend of the summer! I do hate to say goodbye to summer, but I am so ready for fall, cooler weather, fun holidays, and college football!
We always have fun when we visit Mummi and Doc, and this past holiday weekend was no exception! We left from Birmingham Friday afternoon around 4:30 and arrived in Florence just in time for dinner with Mummi, Doc, and the Huntsville Littles. The other Homewood Littles arrived a bit later.
With this crew, there is never a dull moment nor lack of entertainment. I do believe that Jack's head was on a swivel the whole time. With the families growing, there is always a playmate nearby. Jack is just getting to the age where he is starting to play and interact with other kids a bit more, so it is so much fun to watch him play and interact with all of the cousins. If he wasn't playing, he was watching the others, and that alone is more entertainment than he gets at home, so he loved it!
We were so happy to have our friends Lucas and Leah join us for part of the weekend. We enjoyed a fun-filled Saturday on the lake followed by an exciting afternoon of Crimson Tide football! We watched as The Tide played in their season opener against Virginia Tech, who they beat 35-10. Roll Tide! That night we enjoyed some delicious catfish from Newburn's, a local fav., and then stayed up way past my bedtime, talking and enjoying each other's company.
Sunday morning we all went to church together and then came home for lunch and little more play-time on the lake. We went to church later that afternoon and then enjoyed another delicious meal at Ricatoni's.
Monday morning was a lazy morning (the best kind of morning, if you ask me). We ate, played, talked, laughed, went on one last boat ride, and then unfortunately had to pack up to head home.
Weekends with family are the best kinds of weekends in my book, and I look forward to many more with this crew!
