Fun, Food and Fireworks

We made it back from the beach in time for the 4th of July celebration at the Country Club. We all enjoyed good food, visiting with good friends and watching an unbelievable fireworks show!

It was hard to keep up with Walker while they ran from game to game! Anna Grace hung out with some friends instead of playing games.

Chip Walker and Charlie had a blast!

Anna Grace enjoyed with fireworks with Meg.

We made another trip to the beach just before the 4th of July. We have gotten really spoiled staying at the Hilton in Sandestin! Anna Grace and Walker had so much fun riding the waves, swimming and building sand castles. Scott and I enjoyed just hanging out and watching the kids play!

Walker made a new friend and they played together every day!

Anna Grace loved riding the waves on the raft. She especially loved getting flipped off!

Boys' Mountain Vacation

The Wise boys have been begging Bebe and Daddy Jim to take them to Dollywood and the mountains for the last 6 months! So a couple of weeks ago they headed out late one night after a baseball game. The boys were so excited!! They rode lots of rides at Dollywood, tubed down a river, saw lots of wildlife on a nature hike, and laughed their heads off at the Dixie Stamped. Bebe and Daddy Jim are so great to take the kids to do fun things. This was definitely a trip they all will remember!

John David (5), Walker (8) and Sam (9)

They got all the boys walking sticks. I wonder how long it took before those were used a weapons??

Girls' Beach Trip

All year the Wise girls look forward to their annual beach trip with Bebe and Daddy Jim. They always go the week of Memorial Day and always stay at the Sandestin Hilton. They always have a great time riding the waves, hanging out in the pool, going tot The Track, and having lots of girl time (poor Daddy Jim!)
