Bama Baby

Dad and Jane came to visit us in September. Shortly after their visit they called to see if we wanted to come spend a month with them in Alabama. I think they were really worried about me trying to run the household and take care of the kids all by myself while John was away working.

We decided to go spend the month of November with them. Dad flew up to Detroit and drove back down with us. John flew in for Thanksgiving and drove us home.

All in all our time in Bama was a blast! My BFF came over for a few days & we went to a new outlet mall; where Jane fainted from heat exhaustion. We went to see dad at the golf course & were rear-ended on the way. Zac had his first ear infection & trip to the urgent care. We made Indiana tenderloins; not once but twice. Zac and I went to the McWane Science Center.

Zac spent a lot of time hanging out with Ms. JoAnne. She is the nice lady that lives across the street. They would break up bread and crackers to go feed the ducks. Zac also played out in the ditch where dad had made him his very own construction site.

Dad also has another very interesting neighbor, Santa Claus! He came walking down the road one day in his shorts and red t-shirt to which Zac exclaimed, "mom it's Santa!!" Santa was kind enough to shoot holiday photos with the kids. We had a lot of fun with Santa; he's a great Santa!

We enjoyed our time in Bama with Papa and Nana. We will cherish the memories forever!!
