Happy Birthday, Da!

We hope you have a wonderful birthday "cruising" home! We are so very thankful for you...


Our Saturday!

Walking in Memphis...
Waiting on the trolley...it was sooo hot! And, there was some music festival going on with lots of people!

Tanner has been wanting to ride the trolley forever...


His dream came true today!


The boys loved seeing the sites... The Pyramid, river, other trolleys, and lots of horse and carriages.



Peabody Ducks

The duck master telling the story of the Peabody ducks...
Tanner waiting patiently...
Perfect seats!




Lining up to waddle to the elevator! 


Gavin couldn't sit down when the ducks started walking... He just kept standing and waving at them!
Trying to run after them...

Quick visit...

I took the boys for a quick trip to Tupelo this afternoon so Gavin could see the dermatologist. They squeezed us in after I talked to the nurse this morn and I was very thankful. He has had a rough week with some excema flare ups, but hopefully we will get it under control with some new lotions. The boys had fun playing in the waiting room and did great on the ride! Thankful for these boys, and for every memory I make with them... Even if it is in a waiting room:)

Wearing Da's shoes...
And, DeeDee's!

Sunday Stroll

We took the boys for a stroll around the neighborhood this afternoon. We are so thankful for some cooler weather. The boys also had fun playing on their swing set this afternoon. It's usually way too hot out back late afternoon, but today was perfect! 
This goose was hilarious!

Feeding the ducks Ritz crackers...

Sleepy boy!

Making his mark...

DeeDee and Aunt B made a trip to Memphis today so Da caught a ride up to visit us. While Gavin napped, Da took Tanner to Pirate Adventure (sorry I didn't get any pics of that) and then we had a burger at Christy's. And, you can sign your name on the wall now...Tanner thought that was a great Ida.
It started with his name...
... And ended with "the longest train ever with a lot of smoke."

Happy Friday!

Oops. I forgot my phone is not posting the entire photo, I will get that fixed tonight! Until then....he is on the right side of the photo. Our own little celebrity... Tanner is on the front page of today's newspaper! 
I'm so thankful he is loving school and working so hard. We are very proud of him.

Pink Pool Time

I got these pictures from Heather earlier this afternoon! Looks like Gavin has had a fun day...

Gavin's checkup...

Gavin had his 18 month checkup yesterday afternoon. He got a couple of shots, which he cried about for just a little bit, and got a good report. So thankful for these healthy boys.
