SuperHeros!

SuperHero P & SuperHero R!

 Discussing issues to take on!




GrandMom made Pierce and Reid these awesome capes!  Pierce LOVES wearing his and loves getting B to "fly" him around!
P even wanted to use his SuperHero skills the other day to make traffic go faster for us!
If I say so myself, I think that they look adorable!

Mountain Getaway with Friends!


(September 20th -23rd) We got to spend a few days with some AWESOME friends, breathe fresh mountain air, enjoy a kid friendly cabin, laugh alot, drink some good beer, see a waterfall with 2 strollers and 3 kids under the age of 3 and make great memories!
Brian, Pierce, Reid and I met up with Todd, Court, Jack and Monroe.  We met in Pigeon Forge!  It was a beautiful weekend!  We had one rainy day, but it forced us to stay in, and stay in our jammies until 4pm!  The beautiful day we had a picnic, walked a trail and saw a waterfall!  
Jack is adorable!  He makes pterodactyl noises!  So cute!  He looked like he was watching a tennis match the whole time!  He was back and forth from watching Pierce to Reid, Pierce to Reid.... :) 
Reid was interested in having conversations with Jack and petting Monroe! Pierce wanted to "Go to the Mountains" every morning!  We had to explain we WERE in the mountains!  

(Thank you guys for some wonderful memories (aka: the egg poop that we thought was going to be MAJOR, my falling over the baby gate) We miss you so much!  and we are truly thankful for such an awesome friendship!  We love you!)



 This was in the cabin and Court & I loved it!  :)


I sent this picture via cell phone to both grandmothers and they BOTH wrote back and said "where is Pierce?"  Well, we couldn't get him to pose with us!  :) 

Pierce was like "UNCLE TODD" so many times, I am SURE he was sick of his name!  They are working a puzzle!!


 Love those cheeks and that little mouth!  :)


Jack Attack!  :) 


Pierce loved this game!  Rolling the balls back and forth until you got it in a pocket! :)


Monroe saying "why is there so much noise?"  :) 

One eye'd Jack! ;)  

It looks like he is squeezing really hard, but he is not!  Pierce was EXTREMELY sweet to Jack.  Touching him gently and talking to him gently!  It was a sweet sight! 

Jack had a Momma moment where his eyes are 1/2 closed!  ;) 


Reid started walking really good at the Cabin!  :) 


The boys having snacks on the deck! 

This cabin had toys for kids, a toddler bed, baby gates..... It was quite a life saver! :)



One way to fix dinner!  :) 


Mac & Cheese on a beautiful night!
 

Sweet B Family !


Monroe's new friend! :)


We also discovered after the 1st night that we had visiting Bears for our garbage!  :)

On one of our walks (UP HILL might I add), Pierce picked Aunt Coco and I these flowers! We of course had to put them in water! :) 


This is the 2nd and 3rd row of the Honda Pilot on the way to the National Park for our picnic!  HILARIOUS!  Thankfully Court & I really love one another because we were ON TOP of one another!  :) 

While picnicking, Pierce picked me this 3 leaf clover! :) 



Picnicking with Reid! :)

Walking the trail!  :)  Look who is the leader! :) 






Roar!
 



Look at Reid's little arm!  Uncle Todd was pushing him and he was like "Ooooooo!"  :)  I think he loved it! 


the WATERFALL!
 

A nice family took our picture!  ;) 

:)



Let me warn you, these next series of pictures might be disturbing to some.... ;)  

 Yep, Reid is pulling Pierce's hair!  NIGHT MARE!  and Jacks' face cracks me up!  :) 





Aunt Coco and Pierce had leaves "swimming" down this cold stream!  :) 





Sweet Friends!


After our trail hike, we went and walked a little bit of the Gatlinburg strip!  We found a Mellow Mushroom and ducked in for a snack!  We got the best seat in the house!  Over looking the strip! 

 Reid LOVED looking over the balcony and the people! 


P had Ice Cream and watched the elevator on the Space Needle look out building! 



 Live music was below us! 



We tried it!  It burned my lips plum off!  :) 


 Pierce watching them make Taffy! 


A funny!  :) 

I realized too, I didn't get all 3 boys together! Just plan for another visit!  SOON!  :)


******

 Thursday (September 19th) night we went 1/2 way and spent the night in a hotel in Nashville!  Then got up slowly the next morning and headed into Gatlinburg and hit SAMS before hitting the cabin!  These were the fun pictures that I captured during that adventure! :)


 And we are OFF with OUR WHOLE HOUSE!  :) 


Loving the hotel room..... jumping on the beds!
 

 Sleeping like Daddy! :)  Momma got no rest, but that is ok! 

SAMS shopping! :)
