Labor Day

First of all, I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend. Chris and I drove to Murfreesboro to visit with mom and dad - during which we helped stage a SURPRISE visit from Thom and Heidi and Matthew! Here is how it all went down:

Chris and I arrived at 2am Friday night/Saturday Morning.
We all got up and got breakfast and laid around until 10:30ish.
Everyone went to the Kennedy's to chat and see their new kitchen.
Around 11:15ish we went to town so Cathy could mail a package.
Then we went to the mall :::This is when the panic sets in because Thom and Heidi have and ETA of 8 minutes to the house::::
Chris has already been setting up the plan, saying the the gravy from breakfast is upsetting his tummy a little.
Then he fakes a bigger stomach ache, which makes me have to question if he is being for real, because he even buys a Sprite to help settle his stomach.
So we decide to go home so he can lay down (and use the toilet)
As we are driving he plays it real good, and when i ask about diner, he says "Stop talking about food please," while he is holding his stomach.
Then we turn up the drive only 12 minutes late. Thom, Heidi and Matthew are standing at the end of the yard and SURPRISE!!!
It was great!

We celebrated Chris' birthday at Chuck E Cheese - Spent the evening at home - Heidi threw a mock SCENTSY party - I spent some money haha - the boys took the Kennedy's golf cart for a spin while we sniffed scents.

Sunday we woke, got dressed - Went to tour the Jack Daniels Distillery, shopped the small town square (bought some yummy fudge) - went home and threw a banging cook out with the Kennedy's!

....and I have no pictures because the camera was MIA, and after hours of looking before we left to come home, Chris remembers he put it back in the car for some reason that we're not sure of.....
