Our trip to Sevierville and Gatlinburg

Reunion

We had an awesome time in Sevierville at the reunion. All of the kids had grown so much! It was nice that our cabin was right across the street from the others. Tyler, Brody and Meredith really enjoyed seeing all of the other children. Every time I'd tell them I was going over to visit they would go with me. The aquarium was awesome. We'd been before but Meredith and Zoey hadn't...I knew it would be the perfect thing for them! Tyler and Mer went on the skylift in Gatlinburg and really enjoyed it. We all enjoyed the cabin...especially the hot tub. We did not like the ride up to the cabin..twisting roads and we got lost every time we left or came back!! ha! The photo we took on the red couch at the cabin was as wild as the one last year in China! We played golf at Hillbilly Golf...where you take a tram to the top of the mountain and play down it. It was a great trip and we can't wait until next year!

Zoey counting

I finally got Brody to sit down long enough to get a pic of him and Zoey together. This one has his girlfriend Erica in it too. They have been going together for 1 year!

Zoey kept acting silly when I'd try to get her to say her numbers in front of the camera but I finally got her to...kinda. I noticed she was counting the steps yesterday when we came in to the house..that was 5 so then I put up 10 fingers and she counted them all!

My next post will be when we get back from Sevierville/Gatlinburg. We are leaving Sunday to go to our reunion with our China travel mates. It is 12 families with a total of about 61 or so people! We are all staying in cabins...some together in 2 big cabins and others got single cabins. We got a single one across the road from the 2 big ones. My parents, Tyler, Brody and Meredith are going with me and Zoey. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone! I'll get lots of pics of all of the little ones together again!

Pool and 4th of July

Zoey, myself, Tyler, Meredith and friends Samantha and Natia all went to the pool the other day. She had a ball! On the 3rd we went to a fireworks display at Sharewood Park. Zoey loved the fireworks but not the noise. We had a lot of friends and family with us that night. Brody had to go to the ER early on the 4th so that day was pretty quiet for us. They had us worried at first but after a 3rd doctor's opinion we found out he had a chronic sinus infection. He is doing much better now.
