August Vacation - Nashville Wedding

August

While we were waiting for items to arrive at our empty house, we did some traveling.  First, we went to Dan's brother's wedding in Nashville.  This is the best picture we got of our family dressed up all fancy-like.

Yes, Will-the-reliable-one rolled his eyes while Alex perfectly behaved.

While in Nashville, we explored a Grecian site...  by visiting the Nashville Pantheon.  We actually found out about this place while watching the film edition of a Percy Jackson book.  Will and Alex had started reading the series after we visited the Uffizi in Florence last February.  It had a giant statue of Athena in the center and some plaster casts of the real Elgin Marbles that we had seen at the British Museum in July 2017.

The boys spent a lot of time hanging out with their cousins from Virginia.  One new thing that they have become interested in is what "National Day" it is.  We blame Uncle Mike for this.  In fact, our 2019 wall calendar is now the official "National Day" calendar.

Yes, all the boys fit here

No, I don't know what they are doing

The Calmest Cousins

The wedding was successful, although not witnessed by Alex.  He had too much fun running around in his fancy suit and fell asleep during the ceremony.  His power nap energized him enough to do some dancing at the reception.

 

Parenting ProTip:   Don't let your child dance on an escalator.  Sure it might be ok this time, but do you really want them to go viral for their dangerous dance moves?

Despite all of the dangerous dancing, as I mentioned before, these guys successfully got married!
