September 22- Visiting with Grandmother

Today we went to Huntsville to see the babies' Grandmother (Michael's mother) and cousins, Logan and Hunter. Of course Grandmother was thrilled to see her babies and spend some time with them. They've grown a lot since the last time they saw her, but they were still very happy to see her! Ella had a good time trying to get Grandmother's earrings and glasses off of her. Watch out Grandmother, it won't be too long before this little girl is trying to play dress up in your jewelry box!
While we were in Huntsville visiting with Grandmother and the cousins we went to Portrait Innovations (Mommy's favorite place!) and had pictures of of all the grandkids together. What a fun picture! I guess I shouldn't say what "cute" cousins. I guess it's two "cute" cousins, and two "handsome" cousins. Logan and Hunter are probably a bit old to be called "cute," unless of course it's their girlfriends calling them cute! Poor Logan and Hunter had to be in charge of holding two squirmy babies and listening to all the cooing and such to get Ella and Sterling to smile for the camera. It was all worth it- the pictures turned out fantastic! These kids can't take a bad picture! It would be easy to spend hundreds of dollars buying pictures when the subjects are so attractive! Ella and Sterling just loooooved getting to see their "big" cousins and spend time with them. We can't wait to see them again soon!



Talk about some lucky grandparents! What a great looking bunch of kids.
Later we had dinner at Grammy's house with "cousin" Maddox. All the babies joined the big people at the table.
This time next year we probably won't be able to get a picture of all three babies around the table- they'll be too busy running circles around Mom Gibson!
Sterling wishes he was just a little better at this whole eating thing, then he'd be able to have a serving of Mom's corn. There's no food in this whole world that compares to Mom's corn and sweet tea.

Ella likes to devour a good book just like her Mommy. Although, Mommy isn't usually so literal about her love of reading, but hey, we all have to start somewhere!
We had such a wonder time visitng Florence and spending a couple days in our own home. We really hate to leave, but we know we'll be back at least one more time before we head back to Korea. And even better, we'll have Daddy with us on our next trip to Florence!
