Wednesday evening I came home from bridge to find that Mark, Jenny, and the kids had arrived in Huntsville for a 3-day visit. Thursday morning we drove to the courthouse square to watch the St. Patrick's Day parade. I took this picture of the whole gang sitting on the courthouse steps waiting for the parade to begin. In the stroller is Margaret who just turned 2 in February. Her brothers are John Michael, who'll be 6 on May 1st, and Jackson (8). Mark, Jenny, and Nancy are seated behind the kids.

On Friday Nancy and Jenny took the kids to the Botanical Gardens for the reptile exhibit. Nancy has a picture of the boys touching a baby alligator. Wondering where that picture is? Maybe next week. This morning we took Jackson and John Michael to see the Huntsville Symphony dress rehearsal for tonight's concert. Percussion is the main feature of today's concert. I thought for sure one of the boys would come home and ask for a drum set! Not yet... We ate lunch at Five Guys on the way home.

Fun Times.
