Our trip to Grandma-ma's



FREEZING!!! That was the theme of the trip, literally in the single digits the entire time we were in Illinois. Curtis's pj's froze when we left them in the car overnight! Curtis looked like a native American woman with blankets covering his entire body every time we walked from the house to the car. He was definitely NOT a fan of the cold weather. Once when we were leaving church the wind caught his breath and he let loose and continued to tell us about it until we were back in the heated house. Its a darn good thing that we live in Texas and it only gets cold about ten days a year here. I got to play interior decorator at my uncle's house that was awesome. He gave me his credit card and set me loose at the Quincy Mall...dreams are made of less! I told him he was more than welcome to fly me up anytime to continue the house overhaul! Another highlight of the trip was that Curtis got to see snow for the first time. As it fell outside of our car he just pointed at it and yelled, "dat, dat, wow!" Curtis was truly the perfect child the entire time we were there (not that he isn't normally or anything). He handled all of the long plane rides and car trips like a big boy and obeyed his grandparents and mommy the whole trip. He is really growing up on me! Be sure to check out all the pictures on my Picasa site.
Here is a quick preview of Curtis and his GiGI. (The warm temperature on the TV in the background was definitely for another city, it was only 6* that day in Quincy!)
