CrossRoads of America! (April 6-8) 2008

This past week has seemed like Grand Central Station at our house!! We were so blessed to have Joann, Austin, and Ariana stop and spend the night on their way back to Texas after a two-week stay in Kentucky! Above you can see our sweet new neice, Lucy Grace Chandler, who came to visit us when she was only 2 weeks old!! Jennifer and Al came down with the boys and Lucy to visit poor Aunt Ju Ju who didn't get to be there for the birth!! Keri and I fought over who would get to hold her! I can't believe I don't have any pictures of Keri and the girls hogging her!! :) You can see a picture of it on Jen's website--The CHOG!
Here is proud Uncle Jonny holding sweet Lucy....he and Al had just returned from a Grizzlies Game (the realy reason they drove down!!!). Below are some pics from the game. There's Shaq--he didn't play, and they were disappointed.

I had to include this picture.....This is Austin's first time to eat salad!! He loved Aunt Ju Ju's favorite Ranch Dressing.....LiteHouse!! He kept asking for "More, Please!!" He probably ate over 35 spinach leaves dipped in that yummy dressing!!How fun it is to live in a place where everyone just drops by for quick visits!! This was surely not the case in Chicago! I missed it....and am so thankful to have these sweet opportunities back!

I just love this variety of pictures. What a sweet picture of Jen and Al with Lucy, and also Uncle Jonathan with Lucy. What a bummer that Shaq did not play in the b'ball game. At least they got to see him. As for Austin and his salad eating manners -- maybe they don't eat salad with forks in Texas!! Seriously, what a good eater of such healthy food. Way to go, Austin! Julie and Jonathan, you will have to finish your upstairs so you can accommodate all these guests! How sweet of you to open your home.
Love, Mom
