I am the only soul awake in our house this morning, for a few more minutes at least. I got up early this morning and jogged (!) and got back and read a book for half an hour (!) and now I'm uploading-downloading-whatever the pictures off my camera from this weekend. I rock. Well, I rock very, very quietly, so nobody else wakes up.

Anyway, on Friday we went on a spur of the moment trip to Monroe, to visit Patrick's family. We visited with all the nieces and nephews, and had a great time. My sister Brittany also drove over from Vicksburg for a few hours, and that was really nice.

Here are some pictures, cause you know I can't resist! To make it easier to load, I am putting them as individual links.
