Gulf Shores Family Vacation
13
Last week we went to Gulf Shores, AL for the annual family vacation that Abby’s family has taken since she was 8 years old. It was an amazing time as always, our kids love playing with their cousins and amazingly they can go all week without any real battles breaking out. Abby’s MawMaw Hazel, or HayHay to all the great grandkids, cooks a huge breakfast every morning, homemade biscuits, grits, ham, eggs, THE WORKS!!!! Then of course there are trips to Lambert’s, and Alvin’s Island to get temporary tattoos for the kids, (which I don’t recommend… they smeared before we left the store!!!) and hours, upon hours, upon hours spent in the pool and on the beach.
Speaking of the Beach, Abby and I have started an informal tradition of our own. For some reason we always end up trying to see who can get a funnier “action shot” picture on he beach. We’ve ended up doing this in Galveston, Gulf Shores, and even on several beaches in Hawaii.
I think you will all agree that Abby wins this round, but I’ll take her down next time!!!!

Barry And His DR Buddy…
21
Hey all…I was just going through some old pics in my iPhoto and I came across our trip to the Dominican Republic, and this picture. I think that maybe he was Barry’s long lost uncle, or maybe this is just two guys chillin’ on a park bench, either way….thought you’d all enjoy it. If you felt like adding a caption as to what these two could be talking about, feel free.
I like to think they were talking about the current economic climate…. or sharing recipes for making the best homemade granola… or maybe this guy is just staring Barry down and wishing he had a cool black t-shirt instead of having put on a pink shirt this morning.
What do you think?
Mike.
Waffle House Note

We were eating at Waffle House after the show in Greenville, TN tonight and we were given a note from a lady…. it read…
Dear MM-
You are sitting where I last talked to my son who loved your music. He was killed in Iraq in 11/04. Just wanted to say thanks and God Bless -Nanna.
Please remember to pray for our troops and their families.

Back In The South

We’re driving thru Alabama on our way to our nephew’s baseball game. It’s been a crazy few days….not much sleep and we need a break from this RV in a bad way. Loved the trip, but TX to Maine and back in 10 days was a bit
ambitious.
