Trip to Bham

While Robert is out of town, we decided to head to Bham for a visit. It happened that my parents were going to be going up as well to help Beau put up his storage unit. So, we all rode together and headed up to Bham Monday afternoon. We dropped my parents off at my grandparents and had a very quick visit. Then we headed over to my friend Melissa's house. We are friends from college (not the same Melissa from the Mt House trip) and lived together a couple times while there. We do pretty good keeping in touch with each other, but life gets busy with kids. So it was good to see them and have plenty of time to visit. She was sweet to fix us all dinner and the kids had a good time playing together. She has Josh who is 5, Kate who is 3 and Chase who is about 21 months. So our kids are close in age. We spent the night with them so after putting kids to bed, I got to visit with her and Boyd. I love getting to talk with them and getting to catch up on everything.

On Tuesday, we headed over to my sisters house and let the kids play while dad and Beau worked on the storage unit in the back yard. Our kids and the Stalcups (behind my sister) all had fun playing together. After the new storage unit was up, we cleaned out the old one and tore it down and drug everything out to the street. It made the backyard look so much better. Late afternoon we left and were planning on visiting more with my grandparents but ran out of time. We told them a quick goodbye and headed back home. Next time we are going to visit with my grandparents before doing anything else. I love my sweet grandparents and love getting to see them. I sure am blessed to have all my grandparents still living!
