Making Memories With Gran and Papaw

Hey Friends,

Thank you for stopping by to visit! It brings me joy to have you here with us for a moment of your day. I hope you are having a great Saturday. 

Are you ready for some pictures? I have photos from our recent trip with Mom’s parents (my grandparents). I do not think most of these have made it to the Blog yet, but today is the day.

It was great spending two weeks with Gran and Papaw! We were thrilled to take them on a road trip with us. Mom and I got to show them several things that were important to us. 

Most of all, we were able to introduce them to many wonderful people who have been influential in our lives! They were able to put faces to the names that they had heard about for so long. We were happy to take them to some out favorite churches. 

In the process, we made many wonderful memories! I tried to document several of them. I even snapped some photos while we were taking cover from a possible tornado in the area while in Mississippi. You actually can fit four people in one little interior room.

You may realize that food, ice cream and Buccee’s were reoccurring highlights of the trip! 

In total, we visited three different Buccees along the way. Two of them we went to coming and going, for a total of five Buccee visits in two weeks. 

I lost count of all the good meals we ate and all the ice cream we consumed. By the end of the trip, my Grandmother was grounding me and my Papaw from having any more ice cream.

Besides introducing them to a bunch our wonderful friends and road family, It was great to enjoy some warmer weather. We love the sunshine. 

Gran Papaw experienced Lamberts cafe for the first time, and that was a huge hit! They also liked getting to see the Gulf Of America! we went on a few drives. Papaw was looking for an alligator in the wild, but they were elusive to us. We did get to show him the USS Alabama.

We had a great trip! Thanks to Gran and Papaw for riding along with us! I love you all!

I hope you enjoy the pictures. I will see you tomorrow.
