Fun Filled Weekend

It was a GREAT weekend at the Vaughn home. My sister, and Jacob's Aunt Leanna (Leelee) came home for the weekend. Leanna is a junior at UTK and we are so very proud of her. She is studying to be an elementary teacher. She loves kids and will be so good at what she does. She loves school and we are so glad for that....but, we love it more when she comes to play. Jacob sure does love his aunt!!!

Leelee and J

Our friend Kari came to meet Jacob on Friday night after we went to dinner at Shane's Rib Shack (yum!!). Kari and Leanna went to high school together and lived together for a year at UTK before Kari transferred to MTSU to pursue nursing. She starts her clinicals this week -good luck giving out those shots Kari!!! Kari loves babies. She was so excited during my pregnancy and always wanted to know how the little man was growing. We were so glad she finally got to meet J in person.

I told ya'll last post he rolled over. He is doing it ALL the time now. So fun!!! Here is Leanna encouraging him to go for it. And he did.

Saturday morning Jared, Jacob, and I had a lazy morning at home. Here is little man chillin in his swing. He used to hate this thing, but now he likes it...

Saturday afternoon The Belmont Bruins took on The Jacksonville Dolphins in a fight for the championship. Boy was it a GREAT game. The Bruins came back from almost a 20 point lag in the first half to tie it up for over-time. They played their hearts out, but we lost by 2 points. The Bruins play on Thursday afternoon for the first round of the conference tournament. Hopefully they will win. We have so much fun at the games and love to cheer them on...

Here we are at half-time

Jacob fell asleep right at the good part

After the game my parents took little man to our house and Jared, my sister, and I went to Dave and Buster's to celebrate our sweet friend (and neighbor) Tara's birthday. It was a blast. After dinner we went to Tara and Chad's house for cupcakes. Chad baked them himself and they were yummy!!!!
