4th of July

We left Nana and Papaw's house on July 1st and headed north to West Monroe to see Granny and the rest of the crew. David did great on the 5+ hour road trip. Slept most of the way. Nana and I were grateful. Then we had Granny all to ourselves for a few days before Papaw, Ryan, Aunt Jess & Uncle Rob arrived.


David got to meet his cousins Mick and Mason. They were very excited to see him. Mick couldn't wait to hold his new cousin and Mason just wanted to "love the baby".


On the 4th we hung out at Granny's, had a cookout and played Ladderball (Papaw's early birthday present).

















Papaw's birthday was on the 5th and we headed down to Caney Lake to Mimi and Pop-pop's camp. Uncle Bud, Aunt Claudine, Margaret, and Mary Lou came down and spent the day with us too. We had a fish fry and played in the lake. David and I decided to sit this one out and that we'd go in the lake next year and leave the floatin' and skiin' to the big kids this trip. It was so much fun spending the day with everybody.

Even on the 5+ hour road trip back home David was good. He was awake, laughing, and talking most of the time (at least he wasn't crying). It was a long time to be away from home, but we had a great time visiting everyone!
