Back from Mississippi. We had a wonderful time with that side of the family! I had to put on almost all of the sweet Simon cuddles with Paw Paw - he started saying "pa - pa" while we were there!! The kids just loved playing with Forrest and Dakota. Kara adored the attention she got from Forrest - it was really cute! He made multiple paper airplanes with the Ortlings. The moment he finished folding they would all run outside and see how they flew. Dakota and Simon were a little young to play together, but they played much side by side. They even loved on each other a few times :)! I think both of their favorite things about Gran's hideout under the stairs was pulling the string that turned the light on and off ;)! Em's older brother was able to get back late Friday night, rest Saturday, and come hang out all day Sunday!! We had a big birthday feast for him that day. We're grateful that all Scott's tests came back okay. He's going to try to start eating better for cholesterol reasons and add a bit of aerobic exercise to his LARGE workout routine. Jeff's mom and grandmother arrive tomorrow to visit for a few days. We hope to have some special time with them in the midst of school and the growing lists of meetings and activities :)!
