A week in North Carolina

 Memaw and Sharon had a birthday party for Ivy and Hayley! The girls had a great time! Thanks Memaw and Sharon for the food and presents. Alicia, thanks for sewing the matching outfits and hairbows! Rob and Helen thanks for setting up the waterslide. Ruth, thanks for all the fruit. Family...thanks for the presents. I'm so thankful we got to see all of you!!!

Ivy wanted a polka-dot party!

For 21 years, Sharon and I have played in Waynesville on July 4th. (The only year I missed was the year that Ivy was born. Sharon had to play without me that year!) I really am thankful that God has given me Sharon for a sister! It rained the whole day this year but it was still fun! Some special girls joined us this year! Thanks Ivy, Kayla and Ella for playing fiddle music with us! Thanks to our family and friends for coming to listen to us play and standing/playing in the rain! What a fun day!

Oh What Fun!

Uncle Matt, Aunt Alicia, Cousin Trent and Emma, (Unc. Matt and Shesha)
Thank you for coming to visit us! God gave us a Wonderful time with you all and we are SO thankful! We are counting down the days until we get to come to NC and see you again!

We went to Huber's Farm! We went on a train ride, went gem mining, saw a lot of animals, had yummy pizza and homemade ice cream!

Gem Mining

Oh and the pedal cars were fun too!

 We went to the Louisville Zoo!

We tried to get some family pictures! Hayley and Brent did great! Ivy and I didn't like the sun!

Hayley really loves her Uncle Matt! She loves him so much that she peed on him! He was a great sport!

 Back at home, everybody helped Hayley go to the potty ! God is blessing her and she is starting to get it! Yeah! Says momma!
