Hattiesburg Weekend

Last weekend we made a trip up to Hattiesburg. We went b/c 1) we really hadn't spent the night up there since November b/c when we went for Christmas we only went up for the day, 2) b/c Austin's mom's b-day was the next weekend, but it falls over Mardi Gras season so we wanted to celebrate early with her. Anyway we left after the kids got out of school Friday. We picked them up and drove straight there. We arrived in Hattiesburg around 6. We picked up some chicken and went to his mom's house. Wendi, Harvey, and the girls were all there. We ate our dinner and just enjoyed visiting with everyone. We had also brought up a kingcake for his mom so we all got to enjoy that as well. We stayed until about 8 then we went to the apartment to get settled in for the evening. Traveling like that on a Friday is always exhausting! 
Saturday we woke up to a cold and rainy day. It felt so good though b/c we all slept until almost 8. We got ready though and got over to his mom's house about 9:30. We ate a quick breakfast then headed out to a local trampoline park. We had promised the kids and Maggie we would take them. Since it was rainy we knew there wasn't much we could do and I sure didn't want to just sit around all day. The 3 kids had a blast! It was so good for them. I enjoyed just seeing them have fun. After our time was over we went back to his mom's house for hotdogs and chips. We had a nice lunch and visit with Harvey, Wendi, Maggie, and his mom. We mostly sat around and watched tv after lunch. I got SO sleepy! Finally by the time Wendi and them got ready to head home I told Austin we needed to get out the house. He and I went to Target for a few things. The kids stayed back at his mom's house and played and watched tv. Once we got back we all got ready for dinner that night. We chose a new place to go eat at called Cotton Blues. It was so yummy and such a nice atmosphere. We had a wonderful dinner. After dinner we brought his mom in and we went back to the apartment. Since we had literally been over there all day and it was still raining at this point we were all just ready to get in our comfie clothes. The kids had a good time playing and we just enjoyed winding down. It was a relaxing night. 
Sunday we woke up around the same time, but quickly got dressed and packed so we could head home. We had a quick breakfast at Panera before coming home. That afternoon we mostly just worked on getting unpacked and prepped for the week ahead.
