Vacation Down South

It's time to blog about our vacation to The South. 
In April we headed down to Tennessee - to adopt a baby girl -
that didn't turn out -
 but there were plenty of other 
GREAT highlights about that trip - - 


We went to Georgia 
So Josh was able hang out with his biological family!!


Josh, Janiyah, and Johnathon playing in our bed at the hotel!




We took the kids to a place called "Monkey Joe's"
basically a bunch of blow up toys to climb and jump on - 
The kids had a BLAST!!






We were able to stop by Josh's birth-dad John's Grandma's house - 
so we met Josh's Great Grandmother, and some aunts - 
Sorry no pictures there :(

We also stopped by and saw Josh's birth-mom Jessica's mom - 
So we met Josh's Grandmother 


Josh and his sister Janiyah are about 10 months apart - 
they had a BLAST together!!


Cuties!


We went to the River-Walk park - 
it was the same place we went last time
 with them when we got Josh!


Johnathon, Janiyah, Josh

Having fun on the slides!


Lovin' on each other! So cute together!

Us at the River-Walk


We went to Chuck-E-Cheese 
Josh loved riding the horse - pretending he was in the horse races - 
He belongs to Grandpa Marshall for sure!!



While we were down in Georgia - 
We crossed the boarder to South Carolina 
and got Josh's FIRST hair cut at a Wal-Mart


He hated the apron!





So Handsome!



Back in Memphis we had to visit Graceland!
the Home of Elvis!





Elvis' plane - was awesome!


Paige's mom flew out as well - 
With her there - decided to visit the Zoo


Josh and Grandma!


He hated the noises the dino's made - 
So he plugged his ears!


Watching the Lions




Hanging with the Hippos!



We sat and watched this panda eat and poop and eat and poop!
He was super cute!


Elephants!



All in all - our two weeks spent Down-South were very fun. 
Josh traveled great and had a wonderful time!
