Knoxville

Mommy, Logan, and Kayley went to Knoxville a few weeks ago. Daddy drove us half way where we met Grandma and Grandpa at Shoney's for lunch before went with them back to Knoxville.
Logan and Kayley liked going through Grandma's bracelets while she got ready for church on Sunday.

Logan and Kayley went up on the stage with Abbie (Mommy had her in the Pre-K class a few years ago) during singing time before Bible Class

After church, we went to 5 guys (aka the Peanut Place) for lunch

Time with Uncle T

Out to eat one night at another peanut place. Logan sat by Grandma of course!

Kayley sat in a booster between Mommy and Uncle T
Monday we went up to the preschool while Grandma got ready for the week. Tuesday the kids were ready to go to school!


Every morning, Logan would unlock the front door for Grandma and then help her unlock all the teacher's classrooms

Kayley did GREAT this time at school. She didn't cry at all the whole week.

Logan loved playing Play-Doh with Grandma. (Shadow loved trying to eat Play-Doh that fell on the floor!)

Thursday was the spring program. Grandpa came up in the morning to get the sound and video all set up

Mommy was going to take graduation pictures for Grandma so she tried an outfit on Logan first (over his backpack)

Logan and Kayley did SO GREAT at the program. Logan was sitting in the front row. When Kayley went up on stage, Logan yelled, "There's Kayley!" Kayley then pointed and said, "LoLo!!"
Kayley did all the motions to the songs and was super adorable. She had a lot of fun!


Logan had a lot of fun too! He gave everyone a laugh when at the end, he lifted up his hands which lifted his shirt up ---and his pants were unbuttoned and unzipped!

Playing with Uncle T while Mommy and Grandma packed up. They are playing Ant and Ant Eater (Logan's idea)

They loved the wall out back

Playing with Grandma's make-up

We headed back to Richmond Thursday evening. Logan had school Friday morning so Grandma went with Mommy to take him. Kayley and Grandpa hung out while the air guys put in a new air system!
Logan and Kayley missed Daddy so much! Logan wanted Daddy to paint with him on his new table top easel.

Grandma and Logan

We went to eat at TGI Friday's. Kayley was so cute putting her arms around Mommy and Daddy's necks

The kids with Grandma and Grandpa

Sunday morning we went to IHOP before Grandma and Grandpa left to go home. Grandpa showed Logan how to play a game on his phone
We had so much fun on this trip!!!

The Circus

Sunday, April 11th, after church, Mommy and Daddy told Logan and Kayley that we weren't going home...we were going to the circus! Logan's eyes opened really wide and he got super excited! We had to park a little ways away from the coliseum so Kayley hitched a ride on Daddy's shoulders
"Where's the circus?"
Even though we bought tickets that morning, we had pretty good seats!

Eating some lunch before the circus started
A tall box of popcorn + a large ICEE = 2 happy kids

Intermission after Daddy took them on a walk around the coliseum
Happy girl, even though it was getting near nap time
Logan loved the motorcycle guys!
The elephants were also a big hit with Logan and Kayley
It was a fun time at the circus...not a lot of animals at this one but the kids seemed to enjoy it anyways!
It didn't take long for Kayley to fall asleep on the way home
"Why is my thumb red?!" (He had a red ICEE and then sucked his thumb!)
