Fun with Cousins!

This week Tommy's Grandma Batts, Aunt Julie, and cousins Bridgette and Annaliese came to visit for a few days. He had so much fun playing with the girls and spending time with his aunt and Grandma.
We went to the neighborhood pool with the girls.

We even checked out the "drive-thru zoo" in Mooresville, NC. I don't know if I have laughed that hard in a long time! This zebra (and all of the other animals) would just stick his head in the car window and look around. There were giraffes, buffalo, goats, deer, lamas, pigs, and all sorts of other animals. It was so fun!

Tommy thought it was pretty cool, but I don't think he understood what was so abnormal about the entire situation.

Hilton Head Island

We spent a week in Hilton Head with Trisha's family. It was a great week of bike riding, tennis, golf, and swimming! Tommy loved the ocean and hanging out with his grandparents and aunts!

Tommy loved sitting on the alligator statue!

Tommy and Aunt Kristina

Watching the fireworks with Grandma- they were kind of scary in the beginning, but pretty cool by the end!

Happy 4th of July!

Running on the beach!

Tommy saw some older kids writing with sticks in the sand and decided that it was a pretty cool trick.

Go Tigers!

The entire DeVries family went to the Tigers game to celebrate a belated 80th birthday for Grandpa DeVries. Tommy had a blast- clapping, high fives, and lots of "yea's!"

Too bad the outcome wasn't favorable!
