Weekend in Athens

We decided to take the boys on a little trip to Athens, Alabama to see R's family there. Although it's a bit of a drive (7 hours with three kids!), we love going there to relax and visit with family. It always seems so peaceful there! It's truly a "small town" where everyone knows everyone and is just adorable. R's cousin Missy and her husband own the local burger joint, which has been in the family for many years. We sat in the back of the diner with Granny, Missy, her boys Guy and Ben, and her mother in law and had some yummy burgers and chicken.
We really do feel like we're in a time warp in this town, but it's a sweet feeling rather than strange.

The boys enjoyed Granny's leaf pile


R's cousin Matt still had an inflatable slide from his son's birthday party last weekend and invited us over to play. Look how huge!


Dad even got in on some upside-down-and-backwards action
