Day 4,503

The Pigeon Forge Vacationers

Only a short 12 hour drive, and we’re here!

Hello Pigeon Forge, Tennessee!

The team Daddy helps to coach had a week-long tournament in the most kid-friendly town in the Smoky Mountains, so we tagged along for a quick and beautiful little vacation!

Day 4,484

The Ocean at The Baseball

Who's always the last to wake up?

I'll give you a hint:

He's 9, has red hair, and stinky armpits!

Time to get up, Bubba!!

Cuz we have a beach date!

And even better when the beach is AT THE BASEBALL FIELD!

Hi again, Daddy!!

And HI, Daddy's baseball team!

Adam is helping coach a 12U baseball team down in Jupiter a couple days a week and it's been such a treat to get to know the families and the players while he teaches them the game he knows so well.

Oh!

Look who we have nesting in our tree! This little dove mama has two tiny little eggs she's been sitting on for quite some time now! She's not too fond of our kids these days, so we have to be very quiet and self-controlled for her when we're playing in the front. Good job, Mama!

Day 4,482

The Perfect Day for A Smile

Getting in ALLLLLLL the play time with our friends before they leave. We can't ever get enough of them and we'll sure miss them something big when they're across all those oceans.

Then, while the big kids were at Taekwondo, we surprised Daddy at work!

Hi Daddy! Good job Daddy! Bye Daddy! 

Meanwhile, at Taekwondo, they're learning some serious take down moves. Go Amelia!



Look at alllllll that green grass amidst the playing puppies and kiddies! It's coming along!

Day 4,433

The Cottage, The Water, The Rocks, The Fans, The Gettys!

The little Cottage Girl loves her some cottage play.

I always enjoy a sweet, slow start to our day.

It quickly sped up though.

We were delivered our gigantic air conditioning fans for the barn that will eventually be put on our Property whenever that time comes, 

then, it was off to the dump to unload the huge pile of rocks we had stacked in the trailer, as we had to move them all with the new installation of WATER ON OUR PROPERTY! 

However, we couldn't get the fans moved into the storage unit until the rocks were out of the trailer, so it was a hot and sweaty day of work that paid off in multiple ways. One: ice cream cones, obviously.

Two: The Keith and Kristyn Getty concert in Fort Lauderdale!







It was a night packed with beautiful worship, fun entertainment, and even a call for all the children to come sing a song on stage!

The Gettys are right there at the top of our list for favorite music to listen to and we are so thankful we got to watch them praise and sing and play their instruments live! It was the cherry on top that we had the opportunity to meet Mrs. Kristyn after the show. What a fun night!

Day 4,427

The Friday Morning Strings and the Friday Night Lights

Excuse me while I ugly cry.

HOW ARE YOU SO BIG AND HANDSOME?!

Fridays are for violin fun!

They're practicing hard for their upcoming concert!

And sometimes when Daddy's work allows, we like going to watch him help the other boys learn from our leader and most favorite guy ever.

Day 4,329

The Separate Dates

Girls to the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary!

Bub and Mom to Costco!

And Daddy with Jaeden at work.



Then a little peg doll painting to cap off another busy day.

Day 4,311

The Final Handy Fair Preparations

(Our peg dolls!)

Almost ready for our Handy Fair!!

A little stop at Daddy's work to run the pups.

Our pretty table set-up for the Fair.





It's like Christmas Eve here! We can't wait to sell our items!
