Episode One!
Our vacation started out in Ocean Springs, MS for a visit with GaGa and Poppy! Then over for a short stop and drop off in Foley, AL. Then a quick reunion of friends in Perdido Key, FL. And in less than 24 hours we will be in Paris, TN......
That's 4 states in 10 days! :)
We had a great time in Ocean Springs! Seeing Brandon and hearing Pierce say "Hiiiiiiiii Brandon!" was a sweet high light! Poor Jenn's Dad had an accident so she was in and out of visiting with us! I did get to visit with her late one night and enjoyed it so much! Getting to see Court and Jack and Todd was exciting for me because I haven't seen them in such a long time! Even though we get to talk weekly it isn't the same as actually getting to hug her neck!
We had such a good time! Thank you all for entertaining us and having us bring our circus into your lives for a few days! :)
waiting on Pierce to pee pee!
Reid did his own selfies with my phone! Cracked me up when I found them!
"whoa?"
Our first outing was going to one of the Splash Pads in OS! Brandon sitting between the boys on the way. He was laughing ALOT at Pierce! ha!

Then Dr. and Mrs Maxey let us come and invade their space and enjoy their pool for a couple of hours!
Pierce showing off to Uncle Jason all he could do from swim lessons!
Brandon teasing Mazey in the house!
Their beautiful back yard!
Mrs. Sharon gave them Popsicles to enjoy!
Coloring together!
GaGa put Reid to work doing what he loves best!
Making whipped cream!
OH! and Poppy and GaGa had a 39 year wedding anniversary while we were there (7/5) and THIS is how they looked after the day with all of us!! bless them! GaGa woke up the next morning and said "Did we lift weights yesterday??" HA!

We visited the OS beach!
Reid chased the birds!
Dinner that night, this is where the big boys had to eat! Didn't I say it was a circus!? :)
Reid helping GaGa water!
Being silly!
Fun times!
Picnic and Sprinkler fun!!!
Helping GaGa feed the birds? or feed themselves?? :)
Attempt at getting the boys together! The oldest and the youngest were my best subjects! :)
We got to drop Brandon off at MiMi's before heading to see The Busby's! It was a great way to see what a 3rd child would do our backseat! :) And Brandon was an angel!
***
before meeting up with the Busby's we stopped and had lunch at The Hangout! The boys had so much fun watching the crowd and dancing to the music! It was one of the most fun lunches OUT I have had in a long time!
Dancing!
Watching!

After the circus of dinner that we caused..... Todd was pretending like "Weekend at Bernie's!" ha!!
The next morning the boys got to enjoy watching the Gay Gay (Via Reid - means Gator) do his errands on the beach from our hotel balcony!
Then we headed to condo with Court, Todd and Jack and Todd's parents, Mr. Tracy (Papa T) and Mrs Linda (Lee Lee)! Pierce LITERALLY stayed at the beach and in the ocean the ENTIRE day! THANK YOU to Uncle Todd for going out "way far out" in the ocean with Pierce! HE LOVED IT!
Court - I am so thankful we got a few minutes lounging time! I miss you so and love when we can have vacations together! And thank you to LeeLee for watching Reid while he napped!
