We made an unexpected trip to Arkansas last week for my grandmother's funeral and despite the circumstances of the trip, we really had a great time seeing everyone. We did lots of fun things including a visit on Thursday with the boys great grandmother, Gram, who is 94 years old. After our visit with Gram, we took a trip downtown to the Peabody hotel to check out the ducks that live in the hotel. On Saturday, we also made at trip to the sprinkler park with our cousin Calvin, Grandpa Morse, Aunt Sarah, and Grandmother Mimi. We stayed at Mimi's house this time and enjoyed playing with all of Calvin's toys, especially his sandbox. The boys did pretty well on the plane trip to Arkansas considering their age and the length of the trip. We took lots of treats, toys, and books. Liam was mesmerized by the airplane itself. He sat on my lap and pressed his face on the window during the take-off and landing. He thought the loud noises on the plane were really funny. Liam slept very well on the plane during part of the trip, but that is not too suprising because he can slee virtually anywhere. Luke enjoyed smiling and flirting with everyone sitting around us that would pay attention to him. He got lots of comments about his curls. I am posting a few pictures from the trip. Enjoy!
