Nashville!

Get ready for lots o' pictures!
Bailey and I took a trip to Nashville to spend a week with The Shoe Crew at the end of May/beginning of June.  It was a fun Girls Week since my brother was a working a lot.  The cousins and sisters-in-law got to spend sweet time together.  Our first morning, we headed to Percy Warner Park to play.
This is one of my favorites.  Addy and Bailey walking to the
mud park.  It's literally a pile of dirt with water pumps for the kids
 to play with--so fun!  Addy and Bailey stayed pretty clean,
but the boys in their play group were covered from head to toe!
In the teepee looking up at the spider painted on the top.
There was a creek that ran behind the park that we stuck
 our feet in and a bridge to cross over.  Here is proof that
Jenny was there too! 
Princesses in their Tinkerbell nightgowns
Cousin Love!
You can't tell from this angle, but Milly was jumping into
 their arms for hugs.
Love this precious girl!  Can she be any cuter?!?
Wrestling with Uncle Shoe/Daddy
(and also proof that we did see Matt!)
 We headed to Centennial Park to feed the ducks and geese one morning.  We almost got attacked by a huge goose, but we threw bread at her and quickly walked away!

I've never seen a duck with feathers sticking
out of its head like a fancy hat!
Sweet Milly watching the ducks and big girls.
A family of geese swam over to us and it was neat to
see the goslings.

The Parthenon (okay, it's just a replica)
Swinging at the park is oh so fun!
We got to go to Otter Creek for church
on Sunday.  It was Birthday Sunday for all
 of the kids with birthdays in June.
It was special because it was Milly's first
 Birthday Sunday!  She and Matt are standing under the y in Birthday.
We headed over to Nino and Joe Joe's after church for lunch, pictures, naps, and swimming.
It's tricky to get 3 girls to look at you at the same time.  :)
Here's the best one, but it's blurry--operator error.
Sweet 3 year olds
 On Monday, we headed back to the pool and we were excited because Uncle Shoe didn't have to work until the late afternoon.
Too cute!
Bailey loved the pool and hot tub!


Addy made her own water slide.


Floaties and a ring=extra safe!
I also enjoyed the pool!
(I should have had Jenny take a picture of my face!)
Love this face!
Thanks so much to Jenny, Matt, Addy and Milly for a fun week!  Thanks for the fun memories, laughter, and yummy food.  We can't wait to see you in Washington at the end of July!
