After a lengthy 12 hour trans-lant flight to Atlanta (during which Susannah never cried we are proud to report) Susannah met her Poppy for the very first time.
Our little jet lagged baby adjusted well and has been entertaining Mimi ever since.
Of course the big introduction was between the two new playmates, that's to say Susannah and her new best buddy in San Diego...our lab Meadow. It was joy at first sight...
...and smell! Meadow couldn't be more escastic to be introduced to this wonderful world of new smells that permeate in Susannah's vincinity not long after a meal. Meadow will be joining us in SD soon. While she is happy to be back with us, I think she will miss her tradition of sharing bacon and sausage biscuits from Tylers with my Dad every Saturday morning.
In addition to her new 100 lbs fluffy pillow, Suannah got to meet her Aunt Nancy for the very first time. Since her's is just starting to grow back, Susannah wasn't used my sister's flowing mane of hair.....
...but Nancy could definitely make her laugh.
We even had a big Mallory get together one weekend when cousins, aunts and uncles descended on my parent's house with hearty appetites, warm smiles and great families of their own. Mom-to-be Aunt Liz came into town as well as Uncle Hollis, or Uncle Haha for short.
It has been a great trip to LaGrange to see everyone and there is more to come until we head to San Diego in a couple of weeks. For now, though, Susannah is busy laughing with her Papa!
Up soon, Whit will report on their trip to Knoxville and East Tennessee to meet the rest of her family....and to say that they were excited to see her is an understatement.
So glad to see your faces and hear a bit of your travels! We've been looking for you. :) And the top photo is gorgeous. Waving from here. Pattie
