Tractor Show

This past Saturday, we attended the Tractor Show at the fairgrounds to support Relay for Life. Bryce was so super excited to go, he could hardly go to sleep the night before. We ended up spending all morning there and could barely get the boys to go home after lunch. We even joined the tractor parade around Knoxville in papa's John Deere golf cart. The boys also loved watching the tractor pull and playing with Lexi and Cooper (friends from mamaw's house).

Memorial Day

We continued our Memorial Day tradition of attending the service at Mount Vernon cemetery outside North Henderson where my aunt, and great grandparents on my mom's side are buried. We then headed to Oneida to watch the service and put flowers on my aunt, grandparents, and great grandparents graves on my dad's side of the family. We spent the rest of the day as a family mowing, and playing outside. We are so very grateful to the men and women that have served our country.

Our First Camping Trip

We spent Memorial Day weekend camping at Johnson Sauk Trail Campground outside of Kewanee with Brett and Jo and Bill and Gale. Although we don't have our own camper, Brett and Jo were nice enough to let us stay with them. We got there Friday night and headed home Sunday evening. We enjoyed fishing, riding bikes, playing at the playground, playing volleyball, visiting the big red barn, eating lots of yummy food, and having fun with family. Mamaw, papa, Jake, and Jayla even came out to see us on Sunday afternoon. We had a great time and the boys are still talking about how much fun they had with their cousins. Of course I took a lot of pictures!
