Trip to Nashville, TN


We had a wonderful trip to Nashville last week! The weather there was fabulous and we were able to do and see things that we hadn't before...the girls LOVED this park by Mimi's house.

We walked to the park since it was so nice outside...it was hilarious as the girls played so hard they whined that they wanted me to walk back and get the car and come get them! Cracked me up as when I said no they started jogging back to Mimi's house, so apparently they weren't TOO worn out!
We spent a couple hours at Opry Mills - which is my favoritest place in the whole wide world! Kassidy liked the car as she loves to sit and "drive" in grocery carts.

Saige liked the shark statue by the Aquarium Restaurant - we didn't eat there, though, as the girls ALWAYS want to eat at Rainforest Cafe.

On Saturday night Lee's brothers and their families came to Mimi's for Thanksgiving dinner - everyone hada a good visit...especially the little kids!

Ben calls Kassidy his baby

Kassidy didn't take too long to figure out how to open presents...LOL

Cousin Mackenzie with Kassidy

I think she should be an advertisement for Steak and Shake!
We stopped at a rest area for a break. Everyone was glad for a chance to get OUT of the car.

One of the highlights of our trip was going to the Adventure Science Center - what an awesome place!

Lee got to try out the segway

They all tried out the wheelchairs - they had basketball to play in them and then the phones - so the kids could get a feel for what it is like to try and do things.

They really enjoyed the part where they got to don a doctor's lab coat and play doctor!



All in all it was a great trip...it is getting late and my eyes are bleary...more later!
