First Tennessee Football Game!

Barnes and Anna Kate attended their first UT football game this past weekend. We went with our friends Gavin, Jennifer and Robert. Barnes was so happy to get to share all this with his best little bud! We got to see poppy and yaya while we were there so that was an extra treat.
While it did rain for part of the time we tailgated, the weather for the game was great. No rain and there was blue sky by the time the game ended. The best part of the game?! Seeing our precious children's faces as the took in the enormity of the stadium and field, as they celebrated each touch down, and the sheer joy in their eyes. Saturday is a day Barnes will remember for the rest of his life! His first trip of many to Neyland stadium! Anna Kate's favorite part was the PUPPY!!!! (smokey). Barnes said he loved it all! He got to see the players walk down the road and into the stadium, he got to high five the cheerleaders and had a front row spot for the band marching into the stadium. It was an amazing day that I'm so lucky to have been a part of.

Beach Bums!

The Perry family vacation was so much fun. Other than the long car ride down and back and the teething baby girl that was unhappy 90% of the time! In all honesty, the kids were awesome the whole trip down and back. They didn't even watch a movie until we got halfway home. We played in the sand, celebrated mommy's birthday, enjoyed the sound of the waves, had fun meals where we got to feed alligators, and so many more fun memories that will last a lifetime. 10 days at the beach was just what we needed. I can't wait to do it again soon.

Birthday Boy!!

Daddy had a great birthday last month. His babies think he hung all the moon and stars too. Daddy, YOU are our greatest gift.

They helped me make him a cake and we took him to our favorite place to celebrate, The Spaghetti Store. Yummy! Daddy also got some exciting job news on his birthday, he is taking over all responsibility for quality worldwide within the position he does now. So he will have over 20 addition facilities worldwide that will report into him. We are so proud of your continued success honey! We love you more than you will ever know. The kids ask me 100 times a day if it's getting close to daddy coming home. Barnes counts the days until its the weekend and you will be home with us.
