Off to Great-Grandmother's we go

This past weekend (the first weekend of Spring Break) we went to go see my Grandmother, who lives in San Angelo. San Angelo is not exactly a bustling town and isn't on the way to anywhere, so we knew that we had to make a very specific trip to go see her. This was Charlotte's first time to see her Great-Grandmother, although we have been sending pictures since she was born. My brother rode along in the backseat with Char and we were so thankful for that! It is a 5 hour trip and her Uncle Jeremy really helped to keep her entertained. We also met my parents there.

Four generations of girls!
We couldn't get Charlotte to stop sticking out her tongue!
Probably the funniest story of the weekend involved going to church on Sunday morning. My grandmother goes to a very small church of less than 100 people. There were about 3-4 other kids, but they were extremely well-trained and quiet! During the Lord's Supper, the church was quieter than I have every heard a church be. Seriously, you could hear people breathing. Then, the air conditioner cut off and it was even more quiet! All of the quiet was only to be interrupted by my sweet daughter going "Aa" every few seconds because she just wanted to talk! Mark leaned over and whispered, "I really hope she doesn't fart!". I just about lost it! I could just picture it. Thank goodness our daughter controlled her bodily functions throughout the church service.

At Great-Grandmother's, her favorite things to do were look out the storm door to the world outside, and play on the spinning brown chair. Such simple fun!

She discovered how to make the chair rock!
