Alabama Pictures - Part 1

OK, now that I have time to sit and breathe, here are some pictures from our trip! I took a lot so I'm breaking them up by event. I didn't take any pictures on Thursday. We drove down that day, checked into our hotel and just spent the day hanging out and resting. We haven't done that in a long time, so it was actually really nice! We ordered in dinner and went to bed early. Ahhh!

Friday we got up, ate breakfast at the hotel and then took off to the McWane Science Center to meet up with Jolie and some of her kids. We got there before she did, so Frank took off with Kass and Kam to go explore while I stayed with the little three in the play area they had there. It was super fun! Keeghan wasn't feeling so hot at this point, but he still had fun.

Keeghan in front of the big chain reaction structure in front of the museum. I totally want one of these in my living room! LOL 

The kids playing in the water... I think the girls could have stayed there all day. 

Fun, Fun!

They were filling this big cup together... 

Keeghan was shopping, he picked all our favorites. 

Kennedy had fun putting on a puppet show 

And Kellsey played with the bead thing for awhile... what is that thing called, anyway?

Welcome to Kennedy's puppet show! 

Keeghan wants to be a firefighter when he grows up, so he thought he should do this puzzle. 

The kids driving in a car... not too sure which girl is driving! LOL 

Keeghan playing in the garden

He wanted a turn to drive, too!

Kenn said this looked like a princess bed!

I'm thinking that the kids REALLY wanted to drive somewhere! haha

Aiming carefully...

YES! I did it!!!

I don't know who Tom is, but Keeghan totally ruined his name! LOL 

Kellsey is wondering who this kid is in her car! LOL It's Max, of course! :)

Daddy and Kennedy petting the sharks

Jolie, Max, Lillie Ben, Kameron and Kassidy

So serious, Kam!

Sweet Max!

Most of the kids... Kennedy, Kameron, Keeghan, Kellsey, JT, Lillie Ben, Max and Kassidy

After we left the Science Center, we went to the movies to see Hop. I thought it was very fitting for Easter Weekend! Then we went back to George and Jolie's house to hang out. Frank and George ran to the store so Frank could cook dinner for everyone while the kids played and in the meantime, Keeghan got worse. His fever spiked and every time he coughed he cried that his chest hurt. Jolie called her pediatrician and they advised that we take him to the ER. I'm glad that we did, because it turns out that he had pneumonia. Poor kid!! They gave him a shot of Rocephin and he felt a lot better on Saturday. SO that's the end of our Friday! More later.

How did Keeghan do with that shot of Rocephin? I got that shot a few times, and it BURNS!!! I'm sure that didn't go over well w/ a 3 yr old! OUCHY OUCHY! Hope all the kids are doing OK, and that Kennedy is feeling better!

Oh, it certainly looks like you guys had a ton of fun, despite the healthy wrench being thrown into the wheels. So nice to see such happy kids.

You sure had fun!! God Bless your family. I hope Keeghan and Kenn get better soon! On another note, I went to the movies that same day to watch HOP, but it wasn't showing anymore in my city... :( So I watched RIO instead... pretty funny :D
