the trip east

my incredible mom flew out to colorado in order to drive all the way back to tupelo with me, laurel, and apache. what a trooper. thanks mom!

i drove the whole time, but believe me, mom had the harder job! laurel did a good job and you would've never even guessed apache was in the car! we spent the first night in a hotel in amarillo. it was like a 3-ring circus getting everyone settled, but we made it.

next stop - colleyville, tx. we got to spend two nights with kissy and buddy. just enough time for a fun trip to the neighborhood splash pad and one of freddy's famous homemade pizzas. yum!

then on to little rock, where we visited and spent the night with our good friends, the swearingens. joseph has gotten so big and jacob is right behind him!

june 7th: last pit stop - the new halliday home in midtown memphis. isn't it lovely? laurel got to see one of her besties, betsy. after lunch we headed to our final destination, tupelo, ms. pretty fantastic way to celebrate my birthday. meanwhile, pat was at a history conference in the big apple. we sure were missing him!
