Two Bama boys, hoping for better luck next year.

Yesterday I took the kids to Alabama to see their grandparents and other extended family since we won't be there for Thanksgiving. We had a great day, and the kids were so happy to get to go.

Here's Bryant Gene with Grandaddy Gene "Poppa G" Swords. At one point Poppa G spit over the side of the truck into the woods. Bryant, who mimicks everything, is now periodically making a hocking sound and pretending to spit. Cool tricks.
And this is what happens when your kids find the camera and you are otherwise occupied.

It's a shame they never have any fun.
