Grammie's Birthday Weekend

Joe in his big boy airplane seat...unfortunately he's over the age limit for traveling on my lap, so he got his own seat and was very proud!

Last Sunday (7/26) was my mom's birthday and there happen to be a last minute air fare special, so Joe and I took off for NWA to surprise my mom. Turns out my sister in Memphis, Brenda, was thinking the same thing and she surprised my mom too! We had such a great weekend of talking, swimming, eating and visiting with family. My niece, Emma, was also being dedicated on Sunday too, so we were able to be a part of that special service too.
Hope you had a great birthday weekend, mom! I know we did and can't wait for more air fare specials!


Entertaining himself on the airplane, he did so good!


Waiting to get off the airplane...ever so patiently.


Emma, she is definitely my brother's child...I couldn't help myself to capture this moment in time. She's going to love me for this picture ;)
