Annual Weekend to Mimi and Papa's

It was an amazing LONG weekend at Mimi and Papa's house this June! We got into town a little before midnight on Wednesday night with both kids fast asleep! It was nice to wake up there on Thursday morning and start our trip! We didn't have the best weather but that didn't bother us at all! We spent lots of time playing on the porch, watching movies and even got to go on a boat ride. We headed into St. Simons on Friday afternoon to let the kids play and have a fun dinner! (We even snuck in a trip to Bailey Boys at Mommy's request!)
Jack got to hold a shrimp, reel in a sting ray and fish on a fishing rod AND got to see some blue crabs that we caught in the nets! He thought that was really fun! Jack also got to drive the boat on our ride! Captain Jack did such a great job!
We ate lots of yummy seafood (Papa's fried shrimp, hushpuppies and cole slaw all made from scratch AND Mimi's red rice!) It never disappoints and we ate until we were sick!
The weekend ended with a fun visit with the Floyd family on Sunday to celebrate Mimi's birthday! It was a really fun and special weekend for us!
We jumped right back into the swing of things today! Jack started Spirit Week this morning (Our church's Vacation Bible School) and Mommy volunteered for the day! We had a nice lunch just the two of us and then headed to another swimming lesson! It's Monday evening and we are well into our week!! Living for the weekend!
