TN Good Times

I am finally taking the time to blog about our fun trip to Murfreesboro, TN last weekend! Kevin’s sister Kellie and her husband Nick live there which is just outside of Nashville. They were kind enough to invite us to spend a few days with them. We had a great time! Will sure enjoyed all the attention from his fun aunts! He had a blast! Aunt Kayse has taught him all sorts of fun tricks. I think this one has a funny name that is escaping me. While we were there, we celebrated Aunt Kellie’s birthday. It is coming up so it only made sense to celebrate in person. Happy almost Birthday Kellie! Will sure enjoyed spending time with you!

We enjoyed a lot of (wonderful) downtime while we were there but we did get out everyday and do something fun. One day we went to dinner in the Murfreesboro square. This particular day we went to downtown Nashville and had dinner and walked around. There seemed to be lots of cool places to hear live music. But – we didn’t want to be “those” people who…had a baby…in a bar (reference a classic movie) so we clearly didn’t go in! :) Will definitely enjoyed the ride!The kiddos A family pic – yay! We have very few of these. A pic with Ally! Since it was the 4th of July weekend there was a lot going on. I bet this was going to be something fun once it got dark. On Sunday the 4th Nick took us out on his boat! It was so much fun and he and Kellie were sweet enough to get a life vest for Will so he could go, too! He was so cute in it! It was a little overwhelming on his little body and he definitely was not sure what to think at first but he warmed up to it. Nick even let him co-captain for a bit. Enjoying the ride with daddy! Here is Will’s typical response to something funny Aunt Kayse is doing. He gets the biggest kick out of her! He loves his Aunt Kayse! After awhile the breeze in his hair and the sway of the boat put this kiddo right to sleep. He got a nice little nap on the way back. He was so sweet! The girls got Will a matching Old Navy 4th of July shirt. They looked cute in their patriotic shirts! Thanks Uncle Nick for teaching me to drive! I can’t wait to come visit again next summer! Thanks to our great hosts for having us! We had a great time! We drove out there and decided it would be wisest to drive through the night as our sweet boy has gotten very active lately. I didn’t envision him being awake for long period of time in the car being a good thing. It paid off because he slept pretty much the whole way there and back. Can’t wait to go again next year!
