Wonderful Week Away



Last Friday Steve and I left for Memphis to spend the night with his parents on our way to Pascagoula, MS and then on to Gulf Shores,Al. My parents kept the girls at our house. Steve's Mom and Dad joined them on Sunday. Yes, they all get along great! Our girls were in good hands. We hated to leave them, but we just needed to spend time together and refresh. Steve's brother, Justin and his wife, Cissy, just had Reid a month ago. There is NOTHING I love better than holding and feeding a little newborn!!!!!!!!!! I could have eaten him up. We had a great time with family! They royally entertained us.
Me with my nephew.

We went to the mall to see the Chick-fil -A where Steve used to work.
Bliss for me!
Here we are after eating at the Original Oyster House in Gulf Shores. We met up and stayed with Kelly, Scott and Harper on Monday morning. We all love to laugh together.
I also enjoyed bonding with this beautiful baby! Harper smiling at her Mama.


Kelly and me at our favorite place to eat!!!!!!!!!!

Notice the shell wall.
More details later. SK is crying.....
