Damien's mom and grandmother came down Mothers' Day weekend to spend time with us and their "darling" Luke. We had a great time together! I took Mom and Nanny to Jonesboro, Georgia, to see the three Carnes homes there. Carnes is my Nanny's family from Missouri, but before they went out west, they were a very prominent family in Jonesboro, so much so that the town fled to their plantation from Sherman's troops during the sacking of Atlanta, and the Union troops left them alone.
We also ate a wonderful brunch at Henry's Louisiana Grill and enjoyed shopping and antiquing.
Luke had a great time catching up with his Nana and Nanny, but calls them Nina and Nini. He absolutely loves the big choo choo train that his Great Uncle Brian and Aunt Sue got him, but is afraid of it when it goes too fast. He likes to make it go backwards (it's the Guarnieri in him).
