Since the boys were out of school Monday and Tuesday this week, we decided to take advantage of the long weekend. David's father hasn't had the chance to meet Eva, so we made the 9 hour drive to Tuscaloosa, Alabama to introduce the two of them. They seemed to hit it off pretty well.
We also celebrated Halloween while we were there. The town that we were actually in is very small, but had a community trunk or treat that all of the churches got together and sponsored. Along with that there were also games, fun jumps and a hayride. The kids had a really good time!
Strangely, Eva has wanted nothing to do with playing in the grass, not even walking in it, since we have been home with her. For some reason, this weekend, that changed and they all enjoyed the Fall temperatures playing outside. She even laid in the grass and let me snap some pics!!
Although a rather quick trip, I am thankful for the time spent with family and for the cooler temperatures outside! I'm also thankful that we have such awesome travelers! Since we left late on Friday, we divided the trip up over two days going to Alabama, but coming back we made it home all in one long day. The boys have their DS's and movies so they are happy and if Eva's not watching the movie with them, she's sleeping or just looking out of the window. They handle it much better than me!
