Visiting the Simpsons

This past weekend, we packed up the boys and headed down to Nashville to visit our friends, the Simpsons.  I met Brian 6 years ago while working at ProLiance Energy.  Since then, they moved to Houston, and moved again to Nashville last year.  We left earlier than planned on Friday morning and just missed all the crazy tornados that swept through the Midwest (although; the suburb of Brentwood hardly got rain!)

Sophie and Blake are very close in age to Charlie and Sam.  However, their children are good nappers (while mine decided that they didn't want to sleep well for the weekend, ha).  Charlie and Sam were thrilled to drive Sophie's jeep (while Sophie and Blake were sleeping). Charlie has never tried anything like this; he was afraid at first but sort of got the hang of it after trying for awhile. 

 Classic whip-lash picture...C had a hard time keeping his foot pressed on the pedal. 

What is he doing??

 

Sam really liked the animal print bean bag chairs in the playroom...

 

Sophie really liked Sam, and followed him around most of the weekend (sometimes even imitating his every move!)  Sam was fine with it (and even laughing) so long as no one got in the way :)

The four kiddies!
