When we crossed the South Carolina line into Georgia, we watched the temperature jump from 98 to 101F. It was hot. And muggy. It was home and we were glad to be back!
On Thursday, Big Daddy grilled up some of the biggest and best pork chops we have had in a long time. Friday was spent shopping the children’s consignment shops, visiting with my great-aunt Manie, and eating wings at a local favorite–Loco’s.
MR had her first “big girl” bath at Gran C and Big Daddy’s
On Saturday, MR visited her first south Georgia produce stand. Although I’m not a big fan of tomatoes (I know, I must be a Yankee at heart), I heard that the ‘maters were some of the best around. G spent most of the afternoon in the pool with a beer in hand. I had to beg him to get out around 5, so we could head to Jefferson, Georgia for a wedding. The wedding was outside. Hot. But beautiful. Gran C and Big Daddy came too to help out with MR. We all had a good time visiting with old friends and enjoying the good ole Georgia heat with BBQ, pasta salad, and sweet tea.
Sunday was leaving day. A day that always comes too fast. Packing up for the eight nine hour trip, we reminded ourselves that we would be back in a few weeks for yet another adventure with the grandparents. And then we proceeded to eat our way home–Krispy Kreme doughnuts for breakfast, Zaxby’s for lunch, and Olive Garden for supper…
Great! Now I’ll be craving Zaxby’s ALL WEEK LONG.
I love that picture of mom and day. Please send me a copy of that one. Also, so cute of mom and MR at the mater stand.
