It was a cold Sunday morning in Little Rock. My phone said it was 24 degrees when I checked at church that morning. That’s cold. We really enjoyed their church and getting to meet some of their friends. After lunch we spent the rest of the day back at their house. The kids got a little (very little) rest but mostly just had fun playing together. The cousins love each other so much and make the most of their time together. There were some rough spots but there’s a lot more good than bad.
I’m jealous of people who get a lot of good natural light in their house and yard because we get pretty much none because of all the trees in our yard. The trees are great but make taking pictures a challenge. Late in the afternoon I went on a little black and white photo shoot.
Yeah, I’m pretty jealous but glad that I was able to get a few good shots.
Of course Caroline isn’t old enough to get involved in all the fun but she did get some lovin’ from Aunt Sissy.
On Monday we went to downtown Little Rock before heading out. We’d considered trying to drive the whole way home on Monday but after lunch and playing at a park we didn’t leave until 2:30. We stayed at the same hotel in Vicksburg and the girls did great again. Caroline slept the entire way and Taylor was happy to watch Cinderella and a few other things. On the way home we saw an amazing sunset and I had to pull over.
Wow.
The next morning we had caught in the middle breakfast then hit the road. The girls did great until about the last 20 minutes of the trip. By that time they’d had enough and both kinda lost it. But considering that we spent about 16 hours in the car and only the last 20 minutes were rough, we’re not complaining.
We had a great time seeing the Crooms and loved their house. It was also good to get away from our normal routine for a few days.
