Family Visit

Jay's Grandma Rosen passed away so we made a trip to Memphis. We enjoyed celebrating the live of grandma, she would have been 96 August 25. We had time to visit with family as well. We spent Friday in Memphis for the funeral that morning and then had lunch with the extended family. After lunch we went and visited Jay's former co-workers and the boys enjoyed watching the TDOT smart cameras at work.

Then we had a wonderful visit with Uncle Ralph, Aunt Michelle and kiddos. We went bowling and then had CiCi's pizza. We were excited and thrilled to hear that Uncle Ralph has accepted the Lord as his Savior and so have the 3 older children. Jay and I were both praising the Lord for the change in Ralph. Jay and Ralph had a good visit and promised to keep in touch more often. We are looking forward to the next visit, maybe they can come here and go camping in the mountains.

We then headed to Bath Springs to visit Nanny, Pops, Kenzie and Konner.I love watching them wrestle in the floor with Pops. We had a great time swimming at Aunt Liz's house and visiting with family. Then we headed to Moma Betty Jo's house for supper, and to visit with Uncle Bill and Aunt Wanda and they had Jax their grandson with them too. The boys loved to played with Jax, especially John Michael. He kept wanting to feed him and hold him. I love that he is all boy but knows when to be gentle too. Then we started our trip back home. James cried and didn't want to leave, then after we got down the road a little ways John Michael started crying when he realized we were not headed to Pops and Nanny's house. Then later mom called and said Konner had cried when he got home from a party and realized we had left. I hate to see them cry but thankful that they love to be together.

Pictures to come soon.
Praising the Lord for answered prayers!!!!!
