Trip to Louisiana

The boys and I, along with mom, drove down to Louisiana to visit my grandparents this past weekend.  The trip was not scheduled until the boys got out of school but Papaw called Thursday asking us to please consider coming this weekend, so we did.  We had a wonderful visit but left a bit, I don't know how to even describe it...ummm, sad maybe?  Monday morning when we were supposed to leave, Papaw said he needed to go to the hospital and Mamaw to the doctor.  Papaw was having a difficult time breathing (as we saw the entire weekend) and Mamaw had an infected sore on her arm and an obviously hurt leg from a fall earlier in the week.  Long story short, Papaw was admitted to the ICU with pneumonia and Mamaw is an antibiotics now.  We left Sulfur around 2:30pm on Monday and got home around 12:30 on Tuesday.  Papaw is still in the hospital and not making any progress.  Please pray for him, and our family, as we get through this time. 
Here are some pics of our visit (along with all the lizzards we had join us).

I didn't get to finish adding to the blog last week

I was able to add the pictures from a few of Jeff's games but then had to work (go figure) again.  We had a great visit with Grandma 2 weekends ago.  She was able to watch 2 of Jeff's games and one of Phil's (Grandpa was there for Phil's game on Sunday).  I think it was the best game Phil had ever played and he scored 6 (yes, you read that right) goals in one game!  She's so excited to see them play that she's going to come back again next weekend!  We can't wait!  She'll also be here for all the fun to celebrate Jeff's bday.  He decided to postpone it a week so his friend, Sam, could come.

Hopefully our backyard transformation will be complete when she comes back.  All I hear right now are sledgehammers and concrete saws...they're trying to get through the 6" concrete patio we have in order to lay down the new paver patio and install the kitchen and pergola.  I CAN'T WAIT!  Before pictures were taken this morning!

As usual, I'm lagging behind
