Because we live in the south,




and it's like a right of passage here to get a tire swing. So after a fun day at the zoo with the Nelsons, Matt went and got not just one.....but two tires. (Apparently one tire swing will cause fights among the kids when they come over to play, so two should help with that problem). Anyways, Matt and our friend Josh hung the tires this afternoon and Hallie LOVES them. They are so fun. Isn't Matt such a great Dad.

Rhi can't wait to use the tire swing. Hope you had fun at the zoo. We went to St. Vincent Island, it is definitely worth checking out with the kids!!

Hallie looks like she is having a riot of fun. We had one in a tree when I was growing up in Utah. Isn't the south and it's culture wonderful! So much better than being a yankee from New England or other parts north. My Granny would have called them "damnyankees" and yes, that is one word. I generally agree with her thinking. She was the first person to hold Matt when I brought him out of the delivery room. I didn't follow the nurse when I saw Granny and Aunt Betty sitting there. She yelled at me but who cared! Family first. The family has lots of ties to the south and it is one of my favorite places. Enjoy it while you can.

So fabulous!! What a lucky girl you are Hallie! And yes, you do have a wonderful Dad! I love that he thought to get 2 tires too, so that there wouldn't be fights. So fun, so fun!

We can't wait to have a go. And smart to have two instead of one....but you know that means we'll have two fights going on instead of just one! JK
