The Calm Before the Storm

Aaron and I made our way to Mississippi in the middle of last week and stayed through the weekend. We're trying to soak up all the time with family that we can before hell year nursing school starts for me. 

As much as I've been blowin' and goin' these past few weeks trying to get every little thing done... a getaway to MS made for a relaxing week. There's something about walking through the garden, putting up vegetables, drinking coffee with Mrs. Vickie in the mornings, eatin' Pop's {Aaron's grandmother} good cooking, and shootin' guns :) that helps us wind down.

Look at the {bad} tomato he blew up! {to the left in the pic below}

Oh, and we had some little visitors come to see us!

I guess they felt like they could relax too... 

I'm finishing up summer school this week and I hope to get some more relaxing family time this weekend.  Monday is my first day of nursing school. Say a prayer for me!!
