We decided at the end of the week that we wanted to head out of town for the long weekend and so we packed up our stuff and drove down to the lake. It was nice to wake up to the cool air and be away from the hot, humid sun of north Alabama. Wait, drive south, cooler temperatures? That's right! We were just as surprised as anyone, but didn't complain one bit. Saturday was spent relaxing and watching soccer (we know, it was a big day for football). Mom and I were cooking in the kitchen when Christopher walked by and was headed straight for the pantry. Next thing I know, he's carrying a brand new bag of Fritos, looks at me and walks back to the couch to join Brandon where he's watching a soccer match. It was too funny! Our friends, the Khans, came up to join us for lunch and the boys enjoyed seeing each other again. The dad's had fun figuring out how to play Bocche ball and Melissa and I were just glad to have the boys entertained for a couple hours while we relaxed with some homemade cookies! Saturday evening we drove into Montgomery to have dinner with Brandon's family. Aunt Ame and cousin Cameron were in town for the evening as well and the two cousins chased each other all over the yard and in the house and laughed at each other while eating dinner. It was cute! Sunday we spent the whole day relaxing again and then Aunt Jenny and Uncle Trey came up with Mollie and Beasley to visit for a little while. Monday we headed back to Huntsville, but stopped in Birmingham to visit with our friends Cosby and Liz and have lunch. We got to see their new house and Christopher had a blast chasing their cat all over the place. They had just returned from their honeymoon and bought Christopher an official Barcelona soccer uniform, which of course we had to put on him right away. It was adorable! We finally got back home that afternoon and were exhausted, but glad we had a chance to see so many family and friends over the weekend.
