I can't believe it has been 7 years since...

I had been to Birmingham, Alabama (my residence for 5 years) until this weekend. We took a road trip to visit Colin, Becca, and Anna who are now doing a short stint in B'ham. I was very prepared for many changes but, surprisingly, not much had changed!

I took TONS of pictures. Here are just a few:

Anna and Mira getting acquainted again on our first morning in B'ham. I am very proud of myself that I ran every morning. However, I am not sure how long I can keep it up as the pleasure/pain scale is tipping toward pain.


Swinging at the neighbor's house


Mira can't actually pedal yet, but she had fun scooting around!


Swinging on the porch


We had to go to Surin West, my favorite Thai restaurant in B'ham. Luckily they had paper tablecloths and crayons to entertain the girls!


Yogurt is SOOOO yummy! And even better when you're eating it with your cousin!


All dolled up for the Fourth of July


We spent Sunday morning at the Birmingham Zoo. It was sweltering! Here Dad and Mira are watching the sea lion show.


Sunday afternoon the Powers invited us over for a swim. Here Anna and Colin are having FUN! Mira had lots of fun too, but she was moving so much it was hard to get any good pictures! She has absolutely no fears and even jumped into the water where Daddy couldn't reach bottom--pretty scary!


Hanging out at a local park on Monday AM, trying to keep the girls away from the beer bottle caps, cigarette butts, and used sparklers


Sharing snacks


A snap of Mira this week. She insisted on putting on my shoes and I was impressed that she actually walked from room to room without them falling off! I think this one is a girly-girl!
