On to Birmingham
Less than 48 hours after we finished opening presents, we were on a plane headed to Alabama to keep on celebrating. The girls sat with me as always. And of course, it’s important to review all the safety procedures before taking off.
The first stop on arriving in Birmingham was to go see Great Grandma Dot. She’s recently moved into a new place in the Alzheimer's unit where she lives, so we went by to check it out.
Our next stop was Aunt ‘Chelle and Uncle J’s house, where the entire Batson family gathered for an evening soiree. JJ loves his Grampa, especially when he’s giving him snacks.
I think Grampa’s about to get this little cutie from behind.
He got him.
Leah loved hanging out with the single ladies, especially Maggie.
Emmie may only be four, but she kept the older girls giggling with her stories of her boyfriend.
Leah captured the attention of Sadie and Mary with some interactive learning on the iPad.
JJ’s already got a knack for the harmonica.
OK, maybe he needs a little more practice before we call him an expert.
That's all I've got for the first day of our trip, but there was still a lot more family and celebrating to come.
