Starting 2022 with Family

 

We headed to TN the day after Christmas to Mimi and Big's house. We enjoyed good food, time together, shopping, gifts and especially The City Forum playing ALL the games! On go-carts, you can imagine Sadie had the need to speed. All of us enjoyed laser tag and Levi really liked the arcade/video games. I also really liked that Candy found the journal I had given Mema to write in to the girls in 2013. It is such a treasure to be able to go back and read some of her thoughts/wisdom she wrote down. 

My buddy and me! 
Then we went to Hopkinsville for the remainder of the week. Michael, Katie and the boys joined us at Grami and Papa's house. We were thankful for the warm weather all week in TN and KY. It allowed the kids to be able to ride bikes, play outside and us to go on walks! Some of the pictures include job site shenanigans at Papa's work. All the kids wanted to go each time he went except Levi. He secretly wanted everyone to leave so he could have one-on-one adult time which he cherishes. So he got Grami to himself while the others were gone. He also won with Uncle Michael. Michael likes to give gifts. He is actually very generous with his resources. He also likes when he gives a gift for it to be extravagant or exciting or something that the person reacts to. Well he gave Levi a Cavs basketball jersey and got little response. Levi liked the gift he is just not an extreme reaction person. In fact when we got back to Cleveland he asked where his jersey was for basketball practice. Anyway so Michael went out and bought him a BB gun and we all hyped it up. The reaction was good (so Michael was happy) and Levi enjoyed it too. 













Thankful that Katie and Wes get along well :) it may be the shared outsider feeling but hopefully they know they are loved and cherished and the kids our parents never had who are beyond helpful! 

Enjoyed a visit from the Lombards too!!


Mom and Dad also treated us to a NYE dinner and babysitting for free :) Thanks parents !
