eventful.

David and I were so excited about having his parents, sister, and our nephew here to visit for the weekend! 

They weren't arriving until Friday evening, so first...

...on Thursday afternoon, we had the best time picking zinnias from this gorgeous field! 

I had picked some the week before too, and loved having them all over!

It made me so happy having baskets full to take home and scatter around our house!

While we were leaving my zinnia friend's house, there were tons of deer bidding us adieu!

Don't they look majestic? 

I loved these! Two mommies with their babies!

Later, on Friday night, I had this sous chef while cooking! He was mainly interested in the boiled peanuts. :) 

He even had boiled peanuts for breakfast, along with Pammy's pound cake! 

Our Saturday began with a picnic lunch on the boat. We found a nice beach to park on, laid out our food, and were enjoying a nice day on the water. 

Then, we heard a yelp from Baxter.

Conclusion:

The poor guy broke his elbow. He was a little too brave and jumped off an 8' cliff. So. sad.

After a few hours at the emergency vet's office, Bax has a bright yellow cast. We all spent the afternoon and night waiting on the little patient. 

Bax was feeling much better and finally learning to hobble a bit on Sunday. 

So, it was time for a morning project. 

We've been loving the TV in our kitchen. I've not been loving the wires and cords that come with hanging a TV on the wall. So, call in the professionals - David and Pop.

And ta-da! 

They not only wired the TV into the wall, but we got a nice new outlet underneath too! 

They're the best!!

On another note, this cute fella started his senior year! 

*tear!*

I can't believe it!

Here's Asa on his first day of school!
