We headed to TN as the first leg of out two week road trip. They are building a new house so we got to play out at their land and help a little too.
Everyone loaded up and headed to TN!
The power went out for a little while one day while we were there. Calais found a light and read stories to the kids until the power came back on.

We did a bon fire and cooked hot dogs, bacon wrapped shrimp and s'mores for dinner.

And of course the s'mores were delicious! We had a lot of fun with our TN Mitchell cousins!!
