Friday night, we met my sister and her family for dinner and then headed to my parents house for icecream. I'm so mad at myself because I forgot to take pictures.....but we were pretty preoccupied with catching up and eating large quantities of icecream.
Saturday morning we woke up early and packed for the last time. We stopped in Jacksonville and visited with my grandmother for a little while. It was weird and wonderful to be the only ones at her house. Usually that house is filled with lots of people and noise. It was very calming and nice to talk with her.
Then we headed to Lufkin to visit my brother family, and meet my newest nephew Griffin. He lives up to his Facebook picture cuteness! I wanted to snuggle him forever! We had a great visit with my them and then, it was time to hit the road once again.
We had one last vacation hurrah by eating Olive Garden for lunch. In keeping with that vacation frame of mind for just a bit longer, we had dessert, which is a big deal since we NEVER get dessert when we go out to eat. It was delicious. With full bellies we headed south in the pouring rain. About four hours later, we finally pulled into Home Sweet Home.
While getting everything unpacked and generally ignoring our children (we HAD just been together nonstop for a week), they found ways to entertain themselves which we thought was funny enough to get pictures of.
And now, we are back in the swing of things and have a Spring Break to remember forever. It was wonderful and I'm so glad it all worked out just right!
