No, I didn't disapear off the face of the earth!

At the last minute we decided to take a trip to Georgia for my Grandmother's birthday. She has Alzheimers and lately she seemed to be becoming more confused, so we felt that we ought to go and see her. Several of us gathered for her birthday celebration last Saturday and it really went well. When my uncle presented her with her birthday cake she threw her hands up in the air and started clapping and exclaiming how happy she was.

I'm really glad that we went even though the trip has really worn us out. On the way there we ran into some terrible rain to where we couldn't even see the car in front of us. There was a lot of praying going on in our car until we finally got through it. We also had some wonderful visits with some of the rest of the family. We went to Pawpaw and Granny's house also and stayed for a couple of days. Granny's flowers are so beautiful!!! I had a hayday just going out and photographing her flowers! I'll have to show you some of my pictures, but for now I'll just show one.

I think Granny said these are called Joseph's Coat of Many Colors, but I'm not completely sure about that. On Sunday afternoon Jesse was playing with three of our little cousins and I thought this picture was sooo cute:

Well, I must go now! I really am very tired and I feel like just laying down with one of the many books Granny let me borrow. Course, I also need to do some unpacking, :/ but maybe that could wait. Talk to ya'll soon and I'll try to tell ya'll more about our trip if I remember to! :D
