before heading to mississippi, laney and jackson decided how to solve the world's problems...

sam and luke had fun playing in grandee and pappy's back yard in the baby pool.

we visited with granny philley in acadia, la. sam and luke sat in her big chair and shared a sprite and a bag of m&m's.

laney loved pulling on granny's face

aunt marilyn even got some love

and luke was cracking us up as he pranced around in a doll hat

sam got to explore a little with granny's flashlight

and after a short visit of about an hour, we were in the car heading back to clinton.
