Tweeb showed everyone where he has sang down there and then we went to get ice cream at the ice cream parlor and then headed down to the famous Wild Horse Saloon (which we ate at when Misty and Braydan got back from NYC..thanks guys). Here is Ellie sitting by the "boy" horse....I was dying laughing at her hand on its leg.
Here is Hope just being silly. This place has these horses all over and even has them upside down on the ceiling in the restaurant area....the kids LOVE it. 
We did not stay downtown too long because we had made reservations to go on the General Jackson for dinner. It is a HUGE river boat that takes you downtown, by the time you get there it is nightime and looks Amazing. It was alot of fun. After we ate dinner we all went upstairs and listened to the band. All the kids and Uncle Eric went out on the dance floor....it was really cute. 
Now for the whole reason why everyone came out....Hopes Baptism. Here she is with Tweeb. I was soooo proud of her for making this amazing decision. The program turned out amazing, thanks to all of our family and friends that helped. She looked absolutely beautiful. 
Here she is with President Griffin afterwards.
Here is all of our family that came out to support her (minus grandma who was taking the picture) on her big day. I swear she was happy even though this picture doesn't show it. After the baptism we went to the hotel where everyone was staying and went swimming, we then got ready and went to the famous Loveless cafe for dinner. Afterwards Tweeb took all of us to the theatre and treated us to a free 3-D movie of UP! We all thought it was really cute and it turned out to be a very fun day.
The next day it was Mya's 2nd Birthday and after church we came back to the house and had dinner and then took everyone to Franklin to see the Temple and to show them the places where we like to go. We came back and had cake and ice cream and opened presents. Grandma and Grandpa gave Mya a cute pink remote control car which she LOVES...thanks guys. 
She also recieved a pool from the Shaw family, clothes from Grandma Mick and Mom and Dad. I loved her facial expression in this picture....whoever said kids don't get excited about clothes!!! Thanks so much for the presents everyone!
We were trying to get a picture of her with all of her stuff but she was being shy and would not cooperate.
Everyone left the next day. Thanks so much for coming everyone. We had such a good time and thanks Brooke for the funny memories that we will always be able to laugh at. We love you guys!!

I was excited to see you had some new posts, brought back to mind all that fun! We had such a good time. Glad you are enjoying the summer! Has the remote control car even survived?
So fun! I loved the baptism dress! (well after the baptism dress!) Okay, how is CHanda your cousin? I'm very curious!
We had a great time. We are so proud of Hope! We can't wait to come out again. We miss you guys. I'm so glad you finally updated!!
Looks like you guys have been busy! Congrats Hope on your baptism! I'm glad that your family was able to come out!
We were so excited that we were able to be to Hope's baptism. It was really a great day. We loved being in Tennessee also, even though we had no idea where we were going. We can't wait to come out again.
