Grandmommy Alice turned 90 on Friday, so Miles and I crossed the state to celebrate. He didn't join us at
dinner, but spent the day Saturday entertaining his nonagenarian nana. Here are two of her grandkids (me & my brother) toasting her longevity.
While entertaining Alice, Miles also played with BeeBe & PopPop. PopPop had a really cool car to ride around the yard.
Later that night Miles entertained lots of family from my mom's side. Aunt Connie had come in from Texas, so of course there was a party! Miles got to see his other nonagenarian grandma (yes he has two at 90! will he live to 110?), 3 great aunts, 1 great uncle, Mimi & Grandpa, uncle Kiley & Megan and cousin Hunter. Whew! He knew he was the center of attention and stayed up an hour past bedtime to cheer for the Vols against Florida.
Alas, uncle Kiley was the only college football fan of the family proudly wearing his colors on Sunday.
We made the drive over all in one day, which was long but not so bad. On the way back, however it was better to stop and have playtime with his cousins for a couple of nights.
Last time we were there he wasn't quite walking yet, so it was a real treat to see them interact. Kate still tried to make Miles her baby-doll and buckle him into her carseat. But eventually they worked out a division of chores. Miles happily took over vacuuming!!
Our visit was lots of fun. Kate and Evan successfully exhausted Miles so he zoned out or slept the entire drive back. And he took 2 long naps today. Yay!
