August 2009

At the beginning of August I took a quick trip to Tennessee to see my Grandpa again because he was not doing well.  It was a good trip, I drove up on a Monday and drove back home on a Thursday.  Here are a few pictures from the trip. 

Aunt Karen and Nolan

My cousin Emily and Nolan

Nolan sleeping right before we woke up him to leave that Thursday morning.

My Grandma holding Nolan while we got things packed up.

One last picture before we left.  Grandpa was still asleep.  Through all the craziness we actually forgot to get a picture of Nolan and Grandpa together during this trip...sadness.

Nolan and I flew to Richmond, VA on August 11, 2009, we came back on August 22, 2009.  It was a great trip filled with lots of time with family and friends. 

Waiting to get on the plane at Pensacola airport...

Flying...Nolan did GREAT!!  He slept on ALL the flights.

When we got to Ricmond Uncle Elliot was teaching Nolan about cars.

Eating blueberries :)

Playing in NC...

His Nana really knows how to get him to smile

Daniel's Grand-daddy rocked Nolan to sleep.

His Auntie Sarah can't get enoughof him...

Nathan and Kara had some of our friends over so we could all hang out and catch up!  Thank you so much, it was lots of fun...we miss all of you!!

Becky was enjoying Nolan...

Michael was teaching him manly things :)

We went to the 4-H pool party to see people I used to work with, Nolan  loves swimming,

Messing with his hair.

These are his Nana pants.  Elliot makes fun of his mom because she wears her pants high...so she made Nolan match her.

Daniel's cousin Michael...he and his wife Olivia are expecting a baby of their own soon!!

Daniel's Aunt Brenda holding Nolan, he was fascinated by the flame from the tiki torch.

All of us hanging out at Brenda and Rodney's...thank you so much for having us over when we came to visit!!

The trip was sooo much fun and a good time to see everyone.  We wish Daniel could have come to enjoy time with his family as well.  Thank you Dennis and Sharon for buying Nolan and I a plane ticket to come visit...can't wait to do it again!
