It was an uplifting trip to see everyone. It was food for my soul! The kids traveled well and enjoyed every minute! Tyler continues to talk about the diggers on the way to visit grandma's school. Angela continues to talk about going in the hot tub with Grandma and Grandpa. I will never forget seeing Great Grandpa Jackson trying to stand on the back of a moving golf cart and watch his life flash before my eyes as I grab him and pull him back down in his seat. I got to spend my birthday with my sister for the first time in over 6 years and Mother's day with my own mom for the first time in years also. That was special. Looking forward to going back in a few weeks!
