Relaxing Weekend!











Janet and I had a very good time in Nashville this past weekend. We enjoyed visting the Country Music Museum, took a tour of the RCA recording studio where Elvis and many country stars made their records. The piano I am sitting at was in the recording studio and was used by Elvis when many of his hit records were made. We had a nice dinner and later went to the Grand Ole Opry and saw several of the older country singers who can still belt out a good country song. Our treat was to see Steve Martin, the actor, play a banjo and sing on the Opry. We needed a weekend doing something different and this worked out very well. I'm for meeting the family there again sometime and doing some of this again.

PaPaw and MaMaw having fun!

Janet and I sure enjoyed visiting with Mark and Rebecca and spending lots of time with Sophia this week.

Sophia is really enjoying her nice new deck. She found a tub of water and climbed in.. of course thats what a deck is for!


We played with her in her playroom, ran like a cho-cho train around the house with her (we got tired but she sure didnt), read lots of books and just had a good old time hanging out.
Sophia chilled out while watching the new Dora videos that Madeline and her Aunt Janie sent to her. She really enjoys Dora and yelling "Swiper".

Sophia has developed quite a vocabulary. We were amazed at all the new words she has learned.


This was a very good week for PaPaw and MaMaw to spend time with Sophia and of course Mark and Rebecca. We enjoyed it immensly and can't wait to see her again.
