Good Friday was a paid holiday for Jonathan (at the Imagination Station), so we decided to take a quick trip to Boiling Springs to see his family. We had not been to Spartanburg since Christmas of '05, so it was nice to head that direction for a change. Hannah was so excited to see her cousin Philip. They had so much fun playing together. We were glad that Kim, Matthew, and Philip could finally meet Madeline as well. Kim is in the final stages of her pregnancy and has not been able to travel. Hannah and Philip kept us entertained--singing, dancing, and generally being very funny. Grandma served all of our favorite meals and treated us to ice cream (picture above) on the warmest afternoon-- I think the high was 60 degrees (haha!). The girls also had a chance to visit with their Great Aunt Elise, cousin Mollie and her husband Michael. Our visit was short, but it was a much needed trip.
Mommy and Hannah being girly! The azaleas are beautiful right now!
Hannah and Philip bundled up for a ride on Grandma's John Deer. What can I say . . . we're simple folk!!! Haha.
Uncle Matthew pulls the trailer of tots (the kid kind--not the potato kind).
Madeline snuggles Great Aunt Elise.
Hannah and Philip work on an Easter activity/lesson with Aunt Kim. It was a neat activity that illustrated Jesus' burial and resurrection. The important part-- both Philip and Hannah were talking all afternoon about how Jesus is not dead, he's alive!
Uncle Matthew works hard to keep Madeline awake.
Philip wrestles with Uncle Jonathan.

I'm so glad you got to go down (I'm used to saying "up" to SC, aren't you?!) - haha
Have a great weekend!
Lori, I'm so glad you had your camera with you as I kept forgetting mine. The kids eating ice cream and in the trailor are great photos! Thanks for the laughs too from your comment about the "tots" not being potatoes! Better go, I think I might be having a contraction! :) I'm a walking time-bomb!
