Nashville

Wesley was heading to Nashville to speak at Michael Reed's annual retreat so the kids and I headed up with him. Emily was having her first shower for Leighton and I was invited to attend. I couldn't turn down an opportunity to celebrate my newest niece.

We piled a lot of fun into the weekend. Before Wesley left for the retreat, we had a playdate with Erin, Elizabeth and Benjamin.

Then, we went to Joshua and Caleb's school to see the 3rd Grade play. It was great!

Elizabeth enjoyed some Aunt Susan time before the play began. 

After the play, we had to celebrate at Krispy Kreme! 

Since we were limited on space in the van, Mimi and Pop Pop took Benjamin and Elizabeth home and Wesley and I took the big kids to get a treat.

Wesley left Friday evening, but the fun didn't stop just becasue he wasn't around.  Susan invited all the "Potts" family over for a very late Christmas Eve get-togther. I am so glad we could be there for this celebration. Susan and Tim have the perfect house for a large crowd and the adults and children enjoyed the brunch.

Rebekah and Elizabeth - the two girl cousins waiting on Leighton to join them! 

After the brunch, Mom and Dad took the boys, and Elizabeth and I headed to Spring Hill to meet Abigail's newest blessings. Levi and Tristan were born the week after Elizabeth. They are adorable and I see many happy play dates in the future for these three!

We rounded out the weekend on Sunday. Wesley was home from the retreat so he and Pop Pop took the kids to see Great Pop Pop while the girls went to Leighton's shower.
