Winter Break

It was Winter Break for the kiddos and Amy! The kiddos had a very low key week off and they LOVED it (lots of sleeping in).  Adam took Thursday off from work and Auntie Julie and Curran stopped by for a visit. Amy and Holly went to visit Grandma Pat and Grandpa Roger for the week in Gulf Shores, AL. We hope everyone is doing well and we are sending good thoughts to all our family and friends!!

Holly found a Yetty boat bucket while on the beach walk.

We went for a walk at Hidden Lake and checked out the sundews (carnivorous plants).

 

On Wednesday we went for a morning walk at the Coastal Arts Center at Orange Beach.

After lunch, we went to the Gulf State Park Fishing Pier and then a walk on the beach.

On Thursday, MaryAnn took us on a pontoon boat ride.

We finished the day with a walk at Cotton Bayou Beach.

Friday before we headed back north.

A "new to Amy" Art installation in the Atlanta airport that uses crayons.

Back to reality on Saturday.  We did loose a bunch of snow so no cross country skiing at the moment.

Sunday food prep!  Adam made Addie a chicken noodle casserole and Ayson wanted a ham dinner. Ayson also made mac and cheese. Addie said she the casserole was "ok" and that it needs to be creamer.

The boys making the gravy and instant potatoes.
