Galla-Rini's in Town Day #3

"Hey guys! Why am I outside and you are inside?" - Bombi
 Morning snuggles with Rylan.
Then he got to snuggle with Buddy at Gigi's.
Love my sisters.  I'm so blessed to have them in my life. 
 We stopped by the market to pick up some last minute things because everyone was coming over to our house.  (My niece) Juliette and Payton are studs.
   Miles, Cody and Carl cut down the tree that fell on the barn.
 Sure is nice to have a family of roofers who could help us out!
We had a bonfire going.
Cody, Rylan, & Geoff took Papa Nutt's car and drove donuts in the back paddock.
Penelope and Payton "tried" to chop wood.
 And then the real fun started....
 They shot for about 3 hours straight and seemed to really enjoy themselves!
My dad would have LOVED LOVED LOVED this.  I sure missed him today.
Packed up and heading in...
Sister photos forever!
We prayed and ate...
 
 and held the babies.
  
It's kinda sad how no one paid attention to Violet and Allison (hahaha!).
We had a bubble blowing contest (Ry's favorite thing).
 
So glad that Sierra {my first cousin once removed - I think!} got to come over to see us too!
These are the BEST kind of days!

Galla-Rini's in Town Day #2 {Franklin}

I had my morning snuggler this morning.
And my sister had her morning snugglers.
The morning was beautiful. Cold but beautiful.
We headed over to my mom's...
to see the babies.
Then we hit the road.  The first stop, was The Red Byrd Coffee Shop.  It's in a cute little trailer parked just outside of Leipers Fork.
This is my sister Davese, Lauren (my niece-in-law and Violet's mommy), and me!
This is my sister's favorite spot.  We come and sit in these seats every time she comes out to visit.
We stopped for a snack at Puckett's.
My girl and me!
We are missing a few people in this photo...there were a bunch of us!
Dylan and Rylan found these sheets of ice on top of old whiskey barrels.  They were pretty cool and sounded like glass shattering when they threw them on the ground.
We left Leipers Fork and headed to Loveless Cafe.
They have the BEST biscuits ever.
Then it was off to Downtown Franklin.  At Meridee's we met up with Kymber and her husband (long time friends who moved to TN a few months earlier).
Then we walked around downtown.
The momma's (Lauren and Kim) and their sweet baby girls.
Then it was back to my momma's to play with the babies!
Baby Allison...
and baby Violet.
