ok - so in the 36 hours they were here I think the kids all took 4 or 5 baths so they were all super clean.
Luke loved M&B.
and our favorite bath was the one with the 7 inches of bubbles and the hot chocolate in the BIG bathtub - after THIS cold treasure hunt (geocaching):
side note: memphis has been in the 70's and just before the Macdonalds got here it snowed (it never snows) and was freezing cold weekend and now it's back in the 70's. what gives huh?
Warming our toes. As Brads sipped his cocoa, he said "This is just yummy baby!"
the bubbles
ROCK BAND MERRIMENT
Too bad we don't have more pics of this. We found out Dave & Liz are quite the rockers. Especially Liz. Not only did she rock on the drums - she was amazing at busting some moves WHILE playing the guitar. And she was the only one of us that got a "flawless" & a 100% on vocals. So it's no surprise that Bradley picked up some rockin' genes.
GABERS
This kid is one of the happiest, grabbiest, kissiest babies I've ever known. It was such a joy to finally meet Gabe. And turns out he and Luke had a lot in common. :-)
BBQ
We had to fit in a LOT of eating in short time and I'm sure they appreciated the calorie intake of their Memphis trip. But what can you do? They experienced fried green beans and REAL southern BBQ at our very own Fat Larry's.
JOEY'S BIRTHDAY!
Joey turned 31 on Friday and we went to Incredible Pizza with Dave. And then invited the Cresaps and the Terrys over for cake, ice cream & present opening.

We loved seeing these guys again! It was just like the old days. And now we are just missing them all over again. But at least I got to fill my Macdonald void for the time being.

Ben has just discovered Gus's fried chicken and has added it to our list of eating places when we have company in town. So now we do fat larry's dyers and gus's world famous chicken. Have you tried it yet?
Ah, bathtub pictures. I want hot chocolate in the bathtub!
How fun! Wish I could come and have a hot choco tubby. When are you guys coming to NY?
Happy Birthday Joey! Looks like you guys had some good fun! We love treasure hunting!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOEY!!!! 31 feels great, doesn't it? I'm glad you guys had such a great weekend!
sounds like lots of fun! Yes, memphis weather is indeed wacky, but you get used to it! Last February it was in the 70's and then we had a tornado there! We were only there two years, but I think my body got used to the mild winter and now I can't stand the cold in Maryland again. We had a bunch of snow on Monday and it was so so cold. Now that it's warming up, I can stand to go out again! :). Glad you had such a nice visit with good friends!
It's always a party with you guys! I love the bubble bath and hot chocolate! Happy Birthday Joes!
