Visit home to Mississippi

We had to completely move out of our house for two weeks while our hardwood floors were being sanded and refinished. Graham and I took the opportunity to leave town and head home to Mississippi. We left poor Michael behind living in an unfinished basement, showering at our neighbors and eating out for every meal. Thankfully our accommodations were much nicer.


Graham had the best time on "the farm". Every day GiGi took him for a ride on the lawn mower and PawPaw took him for a ride on the tractor and in the farm truck.

PawPaw taught him how to raise and lower the front end loader on the tractor. Dad would say, "okay, raise it up." and with all seriousness Graham would pull back on the lever. It was so cute!

PawPaw drilled a hole in the back of his 4-wheeler so he could tow his red car. He must have pulled this car for an hour that day. And no sir, don't offer to help him up the hill when the 4-wheeler was struggling. He didn't want any help.
Taking a tour of the back hoe.

GiGi found this bubble making machine that literally filled the bathroom with bubbles. We all had a good time with that.


We got to surprise PawPaw at work one day. It was Graham's first time to the Sumrall Post Office.


Then we went to Grandmother and Granddaddy's house where we found a tractor magazine. It was great entertainment looking at all of the farm supply for sale.
