We spent Memorial Day weekend in Indiana with family.
It was packed full of excitement!
Caleb was very excited to check out the motor bike Popo bought for the grandkids.
A quick lesson on how to ride it.
And he's off…
Just before he went full throttle, jumped the curb, ran up into the grass and straight for the tree, legs hanging out behind him. Thankfully, he let go just in time, looked up and with a thumbs up, said I'm OK!
After that, he was over it and back to just riding his bike.
Shawn decided to give it a try.
Amelia wanted to take her training wheels off for a try in Grannie and Papaw's yard.
She did really well, but after she fell off, she was done and wanted them back on.
The following day was race day and we went to Grannie's uncle's house for the annual party. Amelia and Caleb are always excited to play with cousins they only see once or twice a year.
Ava, Amelia and Calla.

After a great cookout, we headed to Scott and Christie's new house for a little fishing and boating fun.
Caleb loves to fish!
All of the little kids got a turn in the seat and luckily, the fish were biting!
Zeke.
Jax.
Amelia waiting patiently.
She got one!
Caleb and Jeremy fishing off the back.
After fishing for a bit, we headed out for a tour of the lake. They have a great piece of property and the lake is gorgeous. If we lived in IN, we'd probably be there quite a bit.
The following day was Memorial Day, and we had the Nuckolls/Purichia families over.
Grandma Purichia with all of her great grandkids.
Cousins - Caleb, Summer, Braxon, Amelia, Adarrah and Elise.
Mom and Dad with the grandkids.
The next morning, we started on our cross country adventure. Our first stop was in Kansas to spend a day with our friend, Kelli Campbell, and her kiddos.
The kids were all friends immediately.
I love this picture of Amelia and Kate already telling each other secrets.
Kate giving Amelia piano lessons.
The next day we went to their neighborhood pools. The water was freezing, but the kids didn't care. Shawn played with Tristan and his friend for while.
Kelli and Donovan. Donovan is the sweetest little boy and always has that smile on his face.
Kate and Amelia trying to warm up.
Getting in a little video game action…and of course Amelia's doing crafts with Kate.
Ice cream cones for dessert. I hate that this photo turned out blurry.
Our sleepy morning shot just before we got on the road.
We love this family, as I've said many times before. They are still in need of prayers for their broken hearts. But to see how God is working in their lives through this, is amazing. To be a part of their circle of friends is truly an honor and a blessing!
