Trip to Olive Branch

Back at the end of May we were able to travel to Olive Branch, Mississippi to visit with Greg's parents for almost a week. There were many wonderful memories made.My goal was to make the 13 hour trip without DVDs. We had a basket of books, our Ipod with 19 hours of kids' songs, a basket of toys and a bag of fun snacks to keep the girls busy.

Here is how the trip started out for Phoebe and Joanna...

Our next strategy, thanks to Greg: stopping at the Chick-Fil-As between here and there and letting the girls play a little each time...

And it was a success! We ended up stopping about every 2 hours (which was good for the pregnant lady as well).

Once in Olive Branch, we were treated to a week of fun...

Playing in Nonnie and Papa's back yard...

Playing with Papa's Ipad...

Going to the park...

Going to the Memphis Children's Museum...

Going to "My Big Backyard" at the Memphis Botanical Gardens...

And celebrating Phoebe's 3rd birthday!

Thanks, Tom and Pat, for a wonderful week of family fun!
