It can be somewhat isolating living here in Alaska. While much of our family lives here, a lot of our extended family lives in the lower 48. I feel really lucky that we were finally able to put together a trip to see some of them. First we visited with Rob's grandmother, aunt (Hi Pat!), and cousins in Arkansas:
Then we drove down to Tyler, Texas to spend a few days with my grandparents (who I hadn't seen since Avery was just 6 weeks old):

i screamed a little when i saw that giant spider! holy crap i would die! i am glad you lived through the experience!
That kitchen island is something else--super fantastic use of vintage type.
So funny! I love Tyler, my great aunt and uncle used to :( live there, too.
what a fun trip. I just love little kids on horses. Makes me want to get a pony for the backyard or something.
(and that kitchen island is so cool!)
welcome home, looks like you guys had a super time!
(and don't you look like your grandma... gorgeous!)
Love that quilt. DO NOT love that spider. Geeshh.
That spider caused a full-body shudder over here. Ugh. But great photos otherwise! I want to live at your grandma's.
