Vacation Part 4: Memphis, TN

Day 4: August 1, we left Gatlinburg and decided
to extend our TN vacation a bit to Memphis.

Leaving Gatlunburg was quite rainy
but really brought out the "Smokey" in the Mountains. 





Driving through Nashville,
but we didn't have time to stop and do anything there this time.


We made it to Memphis, TN!
There was about 20 from our reunion that made the 
6.5 hour trip down to watch our cousin, Matt.

He is part of the AAA baseball team for the Padres
and happened to be playing the Red Birds in Memphis, TN!


#22 - Matt Andriese

He started pitching and lasted 8 innings! 
He gave up one run with a no decision. 
His team ended up losing 2-1 in 10 innings. 

He ALMOST hit a home run, seriously!

There he is...just ignore his batting AVG since he is a pitcher :)



Making fishy faces with Grandma to pass the time.


We stayed after the game to say hi to Matt.
It had been a LONG day!
Aubrey stayed up til 11:00 (which was really 12:00 her body time!)
All the kids did really well!

Van Grouws who were there 
with Matt in the middle!


Beautiful home sweet home!
