Making the Aiken Rounds

We went to Aiken on Monday and met grandad and Uncle J. for lunch. After leaving our 2 hour lunch at Ryans(the girls were excellent) we headed off to visit Mr. and Mrs. J. We hadn't seen them since Chris's mom died last year. They hadn't seen the girls since Katie was just a few months old. We had a great visit with them. The girls and Mrs. J were fast friends and before I knew it they were at the table doing 'crafts'. Before we left, Mr. J. commenced the visit by restling and playing with the girls. We all had a blast and vowed that we needed to visit again soon. After leaving there we headed over to D. & T's to see their new house(not so new now, but I hadn't ever been there). The girls were good there too, but we were all getting tired. Chris reminisced with Pumpkin Head(a nickname for a friend from high school) while the rest of us just sat around and beared with the conversation. The conversation was rather one sided as Pumpkin Head and can talk with the best of them. D. and Chris never really did get to talk because Pumpkin Head was so long winded. We finally left Aiken around 7:45 and headed home. It was chicken nuggets in the car for the girls and then off to bed. I tried to put in a slide show. Let's hope it worked.
