picnic at the lake






petting zoo






Kerens' visit and the petting zoo






today was another full day with grandparents. we began the day by a surprise visit by a close friend from college. she was one of my bridesmaid from my wedding. I hadn't seen her since my wedding. So it was so good to see her again! Then after she left we headed out to a petting zoo. The kids had so much fun petting the animals. I think andrew enjoyed it the most! Then we went near the lake for a picnic. After coming home and playing in the yard the kids were exhausted and took a 2 hr nap :) mommy liked that :) Then after dinner we went letterboxing. Even my dad got into it and enjoyed looking for the boxes :) Found 3 ticks on Madison though and she was made it so hard to get them off with all her screaming and yelling....such a girl....

anyway, had a fun day. and the best part is that daddy is coming and picking us up tomorrow! can't wait to see him!

me and the children drove down to TN today. We followed Jenny Bass with her 4 children. They were going to go visit Jenny's sister. We left at 4:30am. Kids were great. Even stopped at Cracker Barrel :) 2 women with 8 kids...you should have seen the looks that we got :) but the kids did awesome, even had some people say how well behaved they all were.



well had a good trip down and the kids were excited to see papa and granny. after church tonight stopped by the pond that is near their house to feed the fish.
papa gave the kids old bread and they were supposed to be feeding the fish but you will see in one of the pictures, madison takes the bread and goes eats it....you would think we were starving her :)





after fishing with granddaddy on labor day the kids went to a baseball game. First baseball game.

Then they all dressed up in their UT outfits...go Tennesse!
