We spent our Fourth of July holiday in West Tennessee with Brad’s family. Grammy Linda had knee replacement surgery on the third and by the fourth she was itching to get her hands on the babies. We spent some of the day visiting with Grammy in the hospital and some of the day shopping with Aunt Lucille (babies don’t really do so well in cramped hospital rooms) and ended the day back and Grammy & Granddaddy’s house. Grammy wanted us to get a picture of Hank & Norah together. Hank was very cooperative. Ahem.



Ahem. Thank you.


It’s a tough crowd sometimes.

We were all surprised when Grammy called on Saturday morning and told us not to come to the hospital because she was getting out on good behavior coming home! We were also pleasantly surprised when Great Grandmother, Brad’s cousin LeeAnn and her daughter Shelby stopped by to visit. Hank & Norah had fun playing with Shelby. She is a character.

Norah and I are planning to spend a little more time with Grammy while she is recovering at home, so stay tuned for more West TN-flavored posts in the weeks to come.
