Spring Break Continued

So, yeah. I'm really behind on blogging. As usual, I have about five different posts floating around in my head and lots of photos piling up, but a shortage of time.

Here's the second half of our spring break pictures which I am just getting around to sharing. Most of these Michael captured during his adventures tromping around on my grandparent's land and they nicely capture many of the things we love about going to Mississippi.

This is Cedar Lane. It connects the original farmhouse that Aunt Ide lives in to my grandparent's house.  It's picturesque and tranquil. 

This is an old, abandon cabin where a ranch hand lived long ago. There are all kinds of postcards from the past on this land and I love hearing all of the stories. 

Here's Gray sleeping while sitting up. We found him this way one night as we were going to bed. He's sitting right next to the sleeping pallet we made for him. 

We lovingly call this guy crazy horns. It looks like he's had a rough day.

When we're not in Mississippi, Michael has dreams about fishing in the lakes around the land. His dreams turned into a reality this trip when he scored some of the best fish ever. Here's one of the 13 large mouth bass he caught. 

Here's another one...not even the biggest one!

Michael trying to capture his biggest catch, but can't quite get it in the frame.

Sorry for the blood...probably should have warned you about that. This was the largest fish he caught during the week. It was 22 inches long! And for all you wildlife lovers, he threw them all back and they lived on, even this guy. 

We also stumbled upon some cool eggs near Aunt Mimi and Uncle Mike's house. So much nature!

Meanwhile, Gray enjoyed Pappa supplying some quarters for his new obsession, race car video games!

Here's one of the cabins that Susu's grandfather built. It overlooks the lake behind my grandparent's house and my parents are fixing up the inside to have as a fun place to hangout. Don't mind the shower stall sitting on the side...that had just been delivered while we were there. 

Mama Lou and Grayson...partners in crime!
