Watch Me!

Tennessee

So we were back for five days and then it was off to Tennessee for the 4th of July and the Serley Reunion! We got there on Wednesday night and it was straight to Uncle Tom's and the party. Everybody was already there, having a great time, consuming quite a few adult beverages. It was nice to finally meet the rest of my family from TN and NY. They all thought I was the cutest thing ever! I spent most of the time at Uncle Tom and Aunt Chris' house, either in the pool, sleeping on someone's shoulder or in the house playing around on the floor. And the pool was the best! I absolutely loved it! Splashing around, kicking my feet and talking was so much fun! It's a little bit better than the kiddie pool Mommy and Daddy have for me! Aunt Katie even got me some sweet sunglasses! They helped my eyes so much! The party on the 4th was fun too. We had some great barbecue by the "Grill Master" Uncle Alan, and then watched some awesome fireworks that Uncle Tom got. They were practically professional! Daddy and cousin Zach had a blast shooting them off. Then after the fireworks, we had a nice little surprise for Gramma and Grampa. Their 30th Anniversary is this September, but since everyone was together for the 4th, Daddy and Aunt Katie planned a little suprise party for them. Aunt Katie put together an awesome collection of old pictures in a slide show with Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are." I think everybody in the room was crying. Then we had some cake that Uncle Bob and Aunt Dee helped us get. It was really nice. Then they started up the Rock Band again, and even though it was soo loud, I slept right through it on Mommy's lap. I was wore out! Overall, it was a great trip. Meeting everyone was so special and I can't wait to see them again! Here's a video of me and Grampa playing in the pool and some pictures of the trip!
