Weekend Get-away

After the Rangers game last Thursday, my mom took Braxton home (to the farm) with her. (Mike worked on Friday/Saturday a.m. and was able to join them for the rest of the weekend.) They weren't sure if he would stay the entire weekend, because he's really not ever spent a night away from us. Except when we delivered the twins...he was with his grandmothers in a hotel just a few miles away.

Anyway - she started the trip off just right in his eyes. (spoiling him from the get go)

She took him to walmart to buy all of his favorite foods! AND, she bought him a really awesome handy manny race car, boxer underwear (SOO cute), socks, light up toy story shoes, rain boots, a back pack, pajama pants, sunglasses and who knows what else!?!?!?! Then she took him to chick-fil-a for chicken and french fries! Believe me, he was set!
When he saw the camouflage rain boots, he told her, "Ooh, boots.. Yee-haw Cowboy!" (like Woody)
He spent most of his time digging (dozing) in the sand and riding the jeep all by himself.
You can tell by his HUGE smile in every picture that he was LOVING it.
Surprisingly enough, he came home without a fight! :) Thank you, Mawmaw and Pawpaw! Braxton had so much fun, and with David working the majority of the weekend, it sure eased my life to have one less child. I was able to nap and sew!
