The land of Grandparents

We arrived home Monday afternoon, completely worn out but 100% satisfied with the reason! The twins and I had a most glorious week in Birmingham. We were there 6 nights and spent such good, quality time together and still it was so sad to leave. It felt like there was so much we didn't get to do or talk about but I guess that's the way it always is when you leave loved ones! And least we all felt like we wanted more, right?! The alternative wouldn't be so great!



Dad and Nelda recently moved (yes, again!) to a lovely apartment complex that has all kinds of amenities that make you feel like you are in a luxury condo at the beach, just with out the beach! There is a beautiful pool area, a gym, a playground, a game room. And a coffee house where you can get Starbucks coffee and sit and read. That's one of the things I never got around to doing!




I wish I had gotten some pictures of all the things I just listed but I didn't so, I will have to do that next time. It really is a wonderful place to live, I was slightly jealous!! And it wouldn't be a visit to see daddy and Nelda if some of the time wasn't spent shopping! They are super close to some of my favorite stores and I was able to get a head start on Christmas shopping which is a first for me!!











And a good time was had by all! Can't wait till the next time, Grandaddy and Nonie!!!
