Old Hickory

Just when we thought we were home, we turn around and go again!

We got home around 11pm Friday night, and after a big breakfast, checking on the neighbor's house, watering the garden, and some shopping at the Farmer's Market, we headed south again to Old Hickory Lake near Mt. Juliet, TN to hang out with Heath's family for Memorial Day weekend!

Nick was already at the pool when we arrived. He was ready for some warm weather fun!

B knew exactly what to do! He'd been in water all week. They had probably 50 red, white and blue beach balls in the pool for kids to play with.

Ali and Chris were already in the pool, too! It wasn't an extremely hot day, but the water felt good!

Silly boy with his hat

They also had inflatables for the kids, and for some reason, the three boys were the only ones on them!

This guy loved the little bounce house. It was just the perfect size for him!

Whoa! Nick and Cash LOVED the Lightning McQueen and Mater slide, of course!

Nick - the dare devil

Cash would stand at the top and jump down landing half-way to the end of the slide. Yikes!

B went down with Heath a few times. That was fine with him. Later he went down by himself and got his leg going sideways and ended up backwards and tumbled head over heels. He was done after that.

Life vest on, ready for a ride on the lake!

Fun bunch!

Yes, I am the only one looking in this picture.

Sisters -- Ali and Stacy sat on the front of the boat enjoying the cruise around Old Hickory.

Nothing but smiles loving Aunt Stacy and Nathan's boat!

Cousins -- T-R-O-U-B-L-E :)

Of course, PawPaw was there, too, enjoying the ride. He had actually driven his Harley down earlier than morning and was spending the weekend with Stacy and Nathan. Perfect weekend for a bike ride!

You guessed it! He was a very tired little guy.

While Cash was a very hungry little guy. He and Chris snacked on chips during the cruise around the water. He liked sitting next to Nathan and the steering wheel. He had lots of questions about the anchor. (He loves anchors right now.)

Here he is fascinated by the engines and power of the boat. Heath and Chris were explaining it all to him. Such a manly boy!

We even got to see a tugboat (?) pushing a barge full of coal (?) while we were out. Nathan also pointed out Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's house while we were out on the boat. Exciting things!

We ended the evening with a big bar-b-que supper, some dancing while the band played, and then we got back in the pool for some evening water fun. It was such a fun time, and we loved the extra time with Heath's family! What a great way to start the Memorial Day weekend!
