A short, sweet visit

This past weekend we made a quick trip to Alabama. It started out as a trip that Bryan would make on his own but since he had been away from me and the three little ones at the beginning of the week he wanted us all to go. So we loaded up and headed to Alabama.

The main reason for our trip was Bryan was asked to speak at the memorial service of a lady he graduated high school with. She had passed away recently and some of the class mates were getting together a memorial service for the family. We got to my parents house around 10 on Thursday night and then spent half a day with my dad and mom on Friday. Friday we met Bryan's parents and his brother Rusty and his family for supper at the park.

We arrived around 6 that evening and had so much fun eating pizza, talking, and playing on the play ground! We usually don't get to visit much with Rusty and his family when we come but this time we got to spend alot of time with them. The kids played and played until we had to go and get ready for bed.

We spent the night at Bryan's parents house and then went to Rusty and Candice's on Saturday. They watched our kids so Bryan and I could go to the memorial service. Although the reason for our visit was sad, it was so nice to see and spend lots of time with Rusty and his family. So thankful the kids and I went!
