These pictures are from about 1 month ago when we met up to celebrate the birth of the most recent addition to our family, sweet Norah Ann Kennedy.
It was so fun to get to see sweet Norah and to have a reason to get together.
We stayed at a really nice cabin just outside Nashville. It was beautiful and so relaxing.
Here are pictures from our time:
Hanging out by the fire, where we roasted some marshmallows
Fighting for the same position by the fire
Emma having a great time outside
Little lady of the hour: Sweet Norah
My beautiful sister who is a pro of a mom :-)
Exploring:
(Shortly after this next picture was taken, there was a snake who slithered out from under the firewood and gave us a good scare ... thankfully he went back under and we didn't see him again)
Such a sweet, beautiful girl
And our other super cute niece, Ellie
I got Addy some nail polish as a "big sister" gift, and it was really cute how much she enjoyed having her nails painted
Ethan chatting it up with his sweet cousin
Too cute
Snuggle time
So tiny
Ells having a good ole' time
What a cute mom and daughter pair :-)
Going for a hike:
The hiking troop
"oh my!"... checking out one of the fish uncle stephen caught:
a kiss?! for the fish?!
Wow, check that out...
(both Addy and Ethan were quite brave in checking out the fish)
(Ethan and Addy loved playing outside with their Paps for most of the time we were at the cabin... and we realized at the end of our stay, thanks to uncle Stephen, that they had sea ticks to show for it...)
More fish
Racing Paps
Little hiking adventure
Ethan and Addy checking out their "little people" gifts from Paps and Grams

We praise God for the blessing of so many kiddos!

Bedtime story:
Thanks dad and mom for such a wonderful time! The cabin was amazing and so nice to enjoy and relax in. Thanks Stephen and Shell for giving us such a good reason to get together! Norah is so precious and I can't wait to see her again. Kell, it was so fun to see little Ellie, and you, of course! Ellie is such a sweet heart. Melissa Girl, it was so good to see you too. You are the best aunt. :-) Love you all and can't wait to see you again.

YES!!! Yawl MADE Our evening!!
We've been waiting what has seemed to have been a LONG TIME for another "Post". AND, yes, maybe cuz the "images" / pics involved Us :), we DEARLY DO LOVE 'EM!
We've always said that You've taught "That" Boy of Yours to be so enjoyably affectionate - his response to FISH affirms that. :)!!
NOW, just provide a few MORE including Emma Elizabeth eating her 1ST B'Day Celebration cake - and We'll be satisfied for awhile?
Only regret 'bout "The" last Retreat was the absence of Adam & Jack, Joel, Kengy, and Travis James - :(.
THX SOOO MUCH - Big Smacks to ALL
The Sr. Harrys
