Tennessee with the Bowyers and Smiths

Be prepared for picture overload!  After we left Virginia, the kids and I drove over to meet all of Josh's immediate family in Townsend, TN.  It was so nice to see everybody (Britt and her family moved down to Florida, so we don't see them very often!) and the kids had the most fun hanging out with the cousins.

Everybody arrived later in the evening on Thursday, so we just chatted with everybody and got the kids into bed. Friday morning we went to drive the Cades Cove Loop.





We have this same picture of us when I was pregnant with Ike!





Britt and Chad.




Zac and Ike-they set this pose up all by themselves!






Uncle Chad arranged an impromptu foot race.





Grandma and Brookie.




Family pic!  




We saw a bear!!  Josh did a little paparazzi action to get this shot. :)









After the loop (which took forever!!), we came back and took the kiddos swimming.  Chad and Josh did a little launching of the kids.





Dave mid-air.











Oh, cuteness.





Josh chilling with Brooklyn.




The real family picture.










Saturday turned out to be quite rainy, so we went over to Pigeon Forge to do some old time photos!





The one of our family.  Absolutely love Dave's smirk!








Once we finished with Pigeon Forge, we came back to have dinner, and then went to this cute ice cream stand.





Everybody enjoying their ice cream.






Such a nice (but super short) visit with the family.  Looking forward to the Smiths' visit to Indiana in October!  Now we are gearing up for our trip out to Colorado-leaving tomorrow morning bright and early and making a stop to stay with my Uncle Joe and Aunt Claudia in Kansas on our way out!
