Vacation! (aka, "Squint and you can see Mexico")

We made our first official family vacation this past weekend. The Parlier parentals have a lake house on Watts Bar Lake in Kingston, TN (southwest of Knoxville). We took babygirl up there along wtih Granddaddy and Grandmom Parlier and brother Peewee and his wife. We had a great time doing not much of anything, or at least I didn't do much of anything. I didn't even get in the car for three whole days! Living in Atlanta, that's the same thing as heaven. I have a feeling that we're going to be up there a lot this summer. Yay!

The best part about the Fourth of July in Tennessee is that fireworks are legal. So, on Sunday night, us and all our fellow rednecks lit it up out over the lake. Someone just down the river had some serious rockets going on. Wonder how you get those??

Hey y'all! Watch dis! (redneck's last words)

I sure miss living in Tennessee. Or maybe it's the small, southern town I miss, though Chattanooga isn't really that small. But, it doesn't have all the transplants that Atlanta has. Nor the 'tude.
