Man, it's hot here!

The kids and I made our yearly trek down to the surface of the sun a few weeks ago (otherwise known as Memphis). We had a great time seeing family and friends and literally squeezed fun into almost every minute of each day. I have a ton of pics, so I'll try to put a few posts up about TN just to cover it all! I'll start with the visit to Nana and Papa's. This was their first time to meet their newest grandson, Nathan. So, of course, Nathan was showered with hugs and kisses. The kids and I had a blast playing in the pool, and Ava and Joshua loved the slip and slide. One night, the kids and Papa went fishing in the pond, and Joshua actually caught a large mouth bass! He was really proud (especially since it was so hot, we figured the fish wouldn't bite). Later in the evening, we shot off leftover fireworks from the 4th of July and ate some smores :) Thanks, Nana and Papa for a fun visit!

Nathan meets Nana! (I think he now understands being spoiled!)
Ava preferred to just get her toes wet, and play on the slip and slide.
Caleb became very brave in the water this summer, he put his face in the water for the first time and started swimming underwater!
Joshua did some pretty impressive stuff on the slip and slide!
