Keeping Up With The Joneses: What a week!

We had Stephanie, Elsa and Tred visit for 12 days. It was a lot of fun and a lot of memories were made. Elsa and Brent got a long VERY well and Brody came to accept that Tred was here to stay for awhile and even started sharing some of his toys with him. I don't remember the last time I laughed so much. We really enjoyed their visit and hope that they come again someday.

We stayed busy. Here is some of what we did...

Sunday March 27

After enjoying more of the beach and the pool, we headed home. Seemed we stopped every 30 minutes for one reason or the other but finally made it back to the house in time to bath everyone and do 3 loads of laundry before Steph needed to pack.

It started with Elsa requesting that we pull over so she could go to the bathroom. In true "Monkey See Monkey Do" style, my boys insisted they use the roadside as a bathroom as well. Fun!

Saturday March 26

Destin, FL

We had plans to go camping near Panama City but those plans got changed and we ended up heading down to the beach Saturday morning and stayed in a really nice Holiday Inn right on the beach. The weather was a bit chilly when we first arrived on the beach because the sun was behind the clouds. The day got nicer as time went on and despite several mishaps, we really enjoyed the day.

Friday March 25

Stephanie, Elsa, Tred and I went to watch Chelsea in her last Dance Recital. Elsa really loved watching all the girls. Tred danced the night away standing in front of us until he fell asleep.

Thursday March 24

Ben took Steph and the kids to the National Infantry Museum here at Ft. Benning while Brent was at school and I went to a meeting.

Wednesday March 21

Montgomery Zoo

We met Stephanie's college friend, Laurie, and her 3 children at the Zoo in Montgomery, AL. Aunt Carol joined us too. It was the perfect day for the zoo.

Tuesday March 22

Day of Rest

Monday March 21

"Dance Party"

We had many Dance Parties here this past week. I finally figured out Pandora on our Blu-Ray and we had some fun with it. Notice that Elsa was usually in charge of Brent during the dancing.
