Kiki and Papaw Duke

Kiki and Papaw Duke came back to visit us!  We have been scared that the drive might scare some people away, but luckily they seem to think we are worth it!  They got here on Thursday afternoon so they got to see Bryce play in his basketball game.  He was so happy they were there to watch him.  The weather Friday was hot, windy and rainy so we didn't do much.  Bryce got out of school at 12:30 which was nice, I'm still not sure why!  Maybe teacher work afternoon?  We stayed in that afternoon and Anthony and Papaw Duke did some fix-it jobs around the house.  Saturday was our explore day.  Kiki and Papaw Duke were here for almost a week in Jan and we never went downtown or really did any sightseeing at all!  We were so busy with the move we just didn't have time.  This time we knew we had to show them how awesome Savannah is.  We hit Forsyth park first.  It is a huge park in downtown that has fountains, playgrounds and beautiful trees and walking trails.  We stayed there longer than we meant to because we were all having such a good time. 

After Forsyth we drove to the underground parking garage (which Bryce thinks is so cool!) and walked on the Riverwalk.  Unfortunately it was pretty cold Saturday and a little windy so the riverwalk wasn't very pleasant.  We had a delicious lunch at Vics, and  Papaw Duke finally got to see one of the huge container ships we've been telling him about.  After lunch we decided to drive over the Talmadge bridge so we could all say we had been to South Carolina! 

Sunday it was cold and rainy so we needed an indoor activity.  Papaw Duke had seen signs for the 8th Airforce Museum so we decided to check that out.  It was a nice museum (can't really compare to the Naval Air Museum in Pensacola though) with a lot of history and info mainly about WWII.  Bryce really got into it and was asking a lot of questions about it.  I would LOVE for my Grandfathers to be around so they could tell Bryce about it from experience.  And Kiki's dad too, he was killed in the war when she was only 6 mos old.  He never got to see her.  I think when I told Bryce that story he realized that the war was a real thing and affected people he knows so it made it more interesting to him. 

We had a great weekend with Kiki and Papaw Duke, we hope ya'll like Savannah enough to come back soon!!!
