The great-grands with Grandma and Grandpa Martin

Celebrating 57 years of marriage

Our family took an extended weekend and traveled to Georgia to visit with Dad and Cindy and the 'grands this past weekend. This was our first visit up since the big move from Grand Junction, and was a much overdue visit considering the (what should be 6, ended up being closer to 7 and 1/2 hour) ride!
When we arrived we found out that it was also grandma and grandpa's 57th wedding anniversary! We felt so lucky to have been able to be there with them to celebrate all those years together. We started the afternoon with them and with Dad and Cindy playing Hand and Foot... one of their favorite card games. It was a lot of fun, even if the boys continued to win, hand after hand :)! We then took the whole family to Golden Corral for dinner - the kids especially enjoyed it because of all the food options... specifically desert! We ended the evening back and grandma and grandpa's house with cake - yes, more desert for the kids.
It was a fantastic visit, one that we will most definitely make more often - even if it is for an extended weekend every now and again! Thanks Dad and Cindy for hosting us on such short notice (I think it was about 48 hours!!), and to Brandon for staying at the house to take care of Jackson while we were away.
