Cleveland, TN

Josh is originally from Cleveland, TN. A city about thirty minutes from Chattanooga, TN. While here, we were able to spend some quality time with family. We made memories that will last a lifetime. It is amazing how having a child just brings the desire in you to make as many memories as possible. I want Jack to experience everything.

Nanny and Jack...Priceless!!!!!
Four Generations...Priceless!!!!!
One Happy Boy...Priceless!!!!!
And a Monkey!!!!

The above monkey is actually a cake that Tammy (AKA Mimaw) made for a beautiful shower thrown for Josh, Jack, and I. She knows me too well.

Mom and Dad

While Jack Michael was waited on hand and foot by his admiring grandparents, mom and dad got away for a little getaway to Gatlinburg, TN. We went white water rafting and hiking through the gorgeous Smokey Mountains. We even saw a black bear. If I showed you the picture you wouldn't believe me because it looks like a black dot. But I promise we did.

We ate at this amazing bed and breakfast located in Bryson City, NC. It had fantastic home cooked food. It was a great start to our mini-vacation.

Barry and Josh

Hiking to Rainbow Falls.

We went to Cades Cove which is a park you drive around. Here is where we saw the black bears. This is a view from our car.

O.K. so I talked about a corn dog for the entire trip. Finally, minutes before we left town, I got one. Yippee!

Got Crabs?

While in Branson, MO to celebrate a family reunion, some of us got away for a while to get some crabs at Joe's Crab Shack. Man were they good!!!!!

I'm a Travelin' Man

We have travelled over 1700 miles, totalling up driving time of at least 22 hours in the last three weeks and our little man was an absolute pro! We love ya man!!!!!!!

Fun in the Sun!!!!

Jack Michael and I went to the pool yesterday. As you can see, it looks like we have a beach bum on our hands.




Could he be any cuter!!!!!!!
