Visiting with Family

This week Oliver, Buttercup, Aunt Anna and I are visiting my parents in Louisiana. God blessed us with a safe, uneventful trip (10 hours on the road!) and we arrived just in time for bedtime on Saturday evening.

Oliver is having the time of his life! He is enjoying having Granddaddy and Grammy around to play with him, and he loves being outside in Granddaddy's garden. So far he has helped Granddaddy plant bell pepper, tie garlic (for drying), and dig holes in the garden. We've also been to a couple of playgrounds in the area. Yesterday afternoon, Granddaddy, Oliver and I went to a playground where there happened to be an excavator, bulldozer, and jackhammer in a field behind the playground. Oliver walked right up to the excavator, and the scooper/digger part was almost as tall as he is!

Buttercup is having a good time, also. The poor baby has some teeth coming in, so she's not always happy, but she is such a fun baby girl when her gums aren't hurting! Aunt Anna made her laugh really hard last night -- I'll have to post the video when we get back to our house!
