Day 7 of our vacation 9/24/2008
I think this was the longest day of them all!!
We got around 4am and mawmaw had breakfast ready by 5:30. I got everything loaded up and made sure not to forget anything, cause we would not be able to turn around! When we were loading up the girls into their carriers in the back of the vehicle, Bella was having a hard time. She absolutely did not want to leave mawmaw and pawpaw. Chris would go towards her and she would run up to the porch where pawpaw was and hide behind him.
Finally Chris had to actually pic her up and carry her to the vehicle!
Once we were on the road (driving to Dallas to catch the plane) we realized just how tired we were. Now once we got to the airport, we got the girls and luggage checked in and of course or flight was delayed an hour!
We finally got on the plane and it seemed like it was taking forever to get to Seattle. Well it was taking forever to get there because the plane was circling over the airport due to weather delays.
Finally we landed and instead of a 3 hour flight it turned into almost 5 hours. We were dead tired. We got our vehicle and loaded everything up, then I drove home. It took 6-1/2 hours instead of 5 hours to get home! Darn construction! So we finally made it home around 1:30am, and unloaded as fast as we could since we had to go to work the next day. We really should have just taken the rest of the week off!
Well that was our quick, jam packed vacation!

Day 6 of our vacation-9/23/2008
This morning we tried to sleep in but you when you try to it's not going to happen! We got up and Mawmaw cooked everyone some breakfast, Yummmm! Then we just lazied around the house for a couple of hours. They wanted to take us out to eat at the Catfish Village in Longview, TX, so we left around 11:30am to head that way. Here are some pics from lunch. MMMMMMMM catfish!!
On our way back into Marshall, we stopped at the Marshall Pottery which is great to go to at Thanksgiving/Christmas time. We watched a guy make some pottery and then we left to go to another pottery place. This is what Pawpaw did while we shopped:
...yea that's not his chair either! LOL
After this we were all so tired, so we headed back to their house. Chris and I did not get a chance to sit before having to leave again. We had plans to meet with Alison and her husband Jess at
6pm. It was so good to see them, I just wish we would have had more time!
Well when we got back to the house from meeting up with Alison and Jess we found the girls to be tuckered out! Pawpaw let them outside to use the bathroom and he saw a cat......he told them to "GET THAT CAT"! Okay, they had a great time doing that! While Macey was outside she got ate up by mosquitos, so mawmaw called her to the back bathroom and rubbed her down with rubbing alcohol. I still can't believe Macey just sat there and let her do that, we are still laughing about it!

still day 5......
So when we arrived back at my grandparents we were a little nervous that the girls had acted out. We were so wrong! They told us that as soon as we left Macey sat at the front door looking out just whining, a soft whine. Finally she came over to pawpaw who was sitting in his chair and she put her front paws up on him, then he helped her up into his chair!! She fell asleep in his lap while Bella slept at his feet! They enjoyed every bit of it too!
Macey following Mawmaw everywhere!
and Bella could not stay away from Pawpaw!
Still Day 5.......
So after we left Magnolia, we headed to Karnack back to mawmaw and pawpaw's house. Once we got there though we had to leave again to go to Shreveport/Bossier City, LA to with MY BEST FRIEND, Amber.
We met at the boardwalk in Bossier City.
and then drove over to Superior for lunch! Here are some pics of Kenny, Amber, Me and Chris.
Once we had said our goodbye's to Amber and Kenny (it was sad) we headed over to Arthur and Jakeila's house to visit with them for a bit. We only got to spend maybe 45 minutes with them though. Mawmaw and Pawpaw were babysitting Bella and Macey and we were a little worried. Here are a few pics of us a Jakeila and Arthur's house.

Day 5 of our Vacation! 9/22/2008
This morning we got up early (again) and drove into town (Magnolia) to take a few pics of the High School. They have done so much I didn't even recognize it!
After taking a quick tour of the High School we headed over to the University. Southern Arkansas University (SAU).
Once we were done with that we headed to the town square.
And of course after the square, before heading back to mawmaw and pawpaw's house, we had to go by THE SPUDNUT SHOP! These are the best donuts in the world! Seriously!
