The Herron Update: Tennessee

We went to Tennessee a month ago to visit my sister, brother-in-law, and all the kids, and had a great time. I got to see their newest addition (#5!) for the first time, and Jake and Addi had such a great time spending time with their cousins. They did not have a bad moment between them even after spending all day together, everyday, for a week. Here are some pictures from the trip.

Dance parties on the bed were pretty much a daily occurrence.

The Newest Addition

(Sorry for the dark picture...it's all I've got!)

Both times that we have visited, we have stayed at this cute little log cabin, surrounded by nature. One of our favorite things is to sit in the rocking chairs on the covered porch and listen to the bugs, watch the deer, horses, and turkey, and watch the rain pour down.

Jake, on the other hand, prefers not to just watch the rain.

We came prepared with the BB gun this time. I think we could fit right in in TN!

Tate did really well for his first time traveling. As I've mentioned, he is NOT my best sleeper, so we had some concerns that he wouldn't sleep at all in new surroundings and on a different schedule. He did a great job though.

Jake and Addi loved getting to feed the horses too.

If you ask Addi what she wants to be when she grows up, she will tell you without hesitation that she wants to be a cowgirl and she wants to work with Daddy. She has the cowgirl thing down pretty well (minus actually knowing how to ride a horse and work on a farm :) ). She really does love horses though.

We visited downtown Nashville this time to meet some friends of ours for dinner one night.

This girl was a Kindergarten student of mine 11 years ago. She's 16 now!

She convinced Addi to get out on the dance floor to learn a line dance. Jake was having none of it though. Our friend even tried to bribe him with $5, and he still wouldn't get out there.
