Finally on Vacation

Chris, the girls and I all left for our vacation in TN on July 4th. We weren't sure if we were going to make it out the door that day because we had a bad stomach virus making it's way through our house. Katie and Bree both had it all week long and then Chris got in on Thursday so it was up in the air if we were going to be able to leave on Friday. After lots of prayer that everyone one would get better and that I would not get the virus we were able to head out on Friday. We drove to Jackson, TN the first day, which took us about 8 1/2 hours. The it was off to Knoxville, TN on Saturday. We stayed the night with our friends Jim and Tammy. They have two boys so it was fun watching our girls hang with bigger boys. We went to church with them on Sunday and then we all went swimming at their pool Sunday afternoon. After a long afternoon of swimming it was time to leave and make the last leg of our trips to Nana and Papaw's house. Katie and Bree both slept the whole way to Kingsport and were so excited to wake up and see Nana and Papaw waiting to give them big hugs and kisses. They have spent the whole day today hanging out with them and not wanting anything to do with Mommy and Daddy, which is to be expected. :) We are looking foward to the rest of our week here.
