Misc. Photos from our Mississippi Summer Vacation- 2024

This will be my last post from our 2024 Mississippi summer vacation.  These are random photos that I took throughout our month-long visit.

We went to see Inside Out 2 with some of David's family.

 
enjoying the movie and those comfy reclining seats!!
 
We drove to Pocahontas, MS  and met David's aunt and cousin for a delicious catfish lunch.
 
We made a visit to the Bass Pro Shop in Pearl, MS.  It is a must for the boys on a trip home.

We enjoyed Sunday worship and Wednesday night prayer meetings.  Before leaving the church on this particular Wednesday night, we walked over to the cemetery to visit my brother's grave.  Isn't that sunset just beautiful!!

The continued sunset view on our drive back into town.
 
I also visited my dad's grave on the eve of the 4th of July and left an American flag.  He loved the flag and would have been proud.
 
We had a fun evening with the Johnson family.  Our kids are all growing up fast! 
 
Our family after a Sunday family lunch at David's sister's house.

We made a few trips to the library while home.  As we walked out one day, I snapped this photo of a butterfly on these brightly colored flowers.
 
We saw the Browns several times but did not always take a photo.  On this night we were at their house for supper and games. 
 
the boys with Sara Madalin

Here we are playing a puzzle game that Reagan had.  The boys had beaten Sara Madalin so she said she wanted to play me so that she could win.  She did.  I took it well.  I promise.
 
We walked the Chautauqua Trail from our house in town all the way to the playground at the park.  I love doing this!!   Ben rode his electric scooter.

A tomato at the park welcome center.

Crepe Myrtle trees are probably my favorite of all!!  I enjoyed seeing them everywhere this summer.
 
And here we are back at the Jackson, MS airport waiting to board our flight back home to Guatemala.  We were happy and sad all at the same time.  It had been an amazing visit back home.  It was fun, restful, relaxing, and all around enjoyable.  It was just what we needed!   
 
 And, in just ten short months, we'll do it all over again!  🎉
