Alabama

 We left the day after Christmas to visit Grammy, Grant's mom, in Alabama.  I had not been down there since Jojo was 8 weeks old. We were long over due and I was nervous about the trip.  The kids did great there and back.  Thanks to the new dual dvd players Santa brought them and Fantastic Mr. Fox.  

 This is pretty much how they looked the whole way down.

 Under the bomber.  The bombs are right above Grant's head.
 I was very impressed with this airplane.  We didn't feel like doing the USS Alabama tour so we just checked out the things around the parking lot.  The wing span on this beast was huge.  She had a cute name though.


 On the most decent day we had there Grammy took the kids and I to the beach.  


 This is the one picture I took of Cora...she's beneath the brown wrap.
 It was so windy the only place we could find shelter from the wind for our picnic was by the Christmas tree and the parking lot.  Look at the flag and the family by the red box:)

This was part of the shipping yard in Mobile.  I wish we could've had access to see where they were actually loading the ships.

Thanks Grammy for the wonderful week.  We had lots of fun and miss you already!
