Our weekend of "firsts"
We headed back to Alabama to see all of Daryl's family this past weekend. It was the first time the boys had been to see where daddy comes from! It was also the first time the boys traveled in a car for more than 2 hours and it went great. They did great I mean. Our trip home was a little hairy after getting stuck in a huge back up on I-10 for two hours due to a fatal accident. Our 7 hour trip turned into a 9 hour trip that we had decided to make Sunday night instead of Monday to avoid weather and catch up on some rest. Boy did that backfire on us! We got into Orlando at 4:30am. Ya. Nice.
We also got to experience the worlds largest peanut boil. And yes I have been eating boiled peanuts for 4 days straight. Not the greatest way to loose baby weight but darn they are good!
The boys also attended church for the first time and met all of the Richburg family. They spent lots of time with their big cousins Ben and Luke. Aunt Lori and Uncle Bo watched the boys Saturday night so Daryl and I could hang out at our friend Kristy's engagement party without them. We had a great time!
Another first for us was the boys attending their first high school football game. They did ok. It was very hot and VERY loud. People in Alabama take their high school football very seriously. I was having convulsions the whole time as I watched person after person and kid after kid come up and touch and kiss on the boys. All I could think was germs, germs and MORE germs. So far so good on the health front though.
I still haven't heard about the xrays but as soon as I do I will let everyone know.
