TX to TN

March 8 - 10 - Texas day at school and trip to Tennessee

We haven't been out to TN since cousin Benji was born!  That was over 5 yrs ago!  Anyone from Isabel down out of our crew had never been.  So, we decided to pre-spring break it and go out for a visit.  

The trip started with James having TX day at school.  Dressing up and country dancing were just a few things he got to do that day.  As soon as he got home - we loaded up and headed out!

Ye-Haw!

Wyatt is so ready to go!

Our first order of business when we met up with everyone was to hit a park so the kids could get out of the car and run around.  Great plan - they did this for about 2 hours!!

Clara!  So big and beautiful!

A brief look at Ben - also, so grown up and handsome!  He and James were on the move so much - I really didn't get any good pictures of them!

Afterwards - PIZZA for the gang!  It was amazingly pizza!  Super good - and really fun flavors like breakfast or something like that.  Large chunks of potato and bacon on a slice of pizza!  It was REALLY good!


Of course, the next day we had to hit some of that TN BBQ!

Cody was a champ on the trip!  He loves visiting people and going on car rides!

I think one of the kids' and my favorite parts was sitting out on Uncle Matt and Aunt Myrt's deck while the kids played around with each other.  

The boys shot

Even the older boys!
(Oh, and did I mention we brought Callie and Manny with us?  Yeah - it was a van FULL!)


The girls played

Puzzles with Aunt Myrt was another highlight!

Such a great trip!  We loved visiting you guys in TN!

What a fun trip! Wait, what??? How in the world did I miss that you drove 4 states away and came back. Ugh, I'm feeling way out of it.
