We spent the last part of last week in Natchez, MS. Actually we stayed across the river in Vidalia, LA and Amelia attended a conference in Natchez. Dave and Joshua had "guy time" for a couple days. Joshua was a little out of sorts as he has a double ear infection but we had a good time.
Strolling along the Mighty Mississippi
(Joshua was more interested in looking at the stripes on his shirt than the huge barges that would come up the river in front of the hotel. Maybe one day he will think those are as cool as Dave and I thought they were.)
Never missing an opportunity to educate, Dave took Joshua to the Grand Village of the Natchez Indians. Dave's excitement about going to the village equalled Amelia's relief that she had to sit in a conference and miss the field trip.
Joshua read all about the ceremonial mounds left by the Natchez Indians.
He even checked out their grass huts.
On our way home from Natchez, we stopped in Jackson for the weekend. Coach and Nana were at the SEC basketball tournament, so we hung out with the rest of the family in Jackson. Aunt Gay even came from Arkansas to visit while we were there.
Joshua and Abigail enjoyed the nice weather and some bubbles.
"Joshua, I told you not to touch my bubbles!"
A little drama (from both Abigail and Joshua) made the weekend fun.
