Hey everyone! I have been a major slacker updating our blog. We just got back from a wonderful family vacation in Chattanooga, TN. I have some family there that we stayed with and visit. We all had a blast and it was so nice to be able to spend time together all week.
We started our vacation early in the morning at 5am hoping the boys will go to sleep most of the way. Jalen and Jordan went back to sleep, but Landon stayed awake. He kept saying "lots of light," "It's night night," "Hi mommy!" This went on and on for about 2 hours and he went back to sleep when we got to Louisville. That Monday we went to visit J's family in a small town that is just north of Nashville. We stopped at Dinosaur World before we headed to his family to let the kids run around. Jordan LOVED it. Jalen was unsure about the dino's and Landon kept saying "raaaawr."
That Monday night we stayed the night in a hotel to let the kids swim. We still had a 3 hour drive ahead of us and we knew the trip would be better if we took it slow and not drive the whole way. Tuesday we made it to Chattanooga and finally got to see my Aunt and Uncle. I have not seen them in years. The kids made themselves feel right at home and was loving their backyard.
Wednesday, we took the kids to the Creative Discovery Museum. This museum was really neat and was all hands on. It was great for all ages. Jordan and my cousin Jonathon ran around by themselves, while we took Jalen and Landon around. Their favorite place was the water river and play house. Jordan enjoyed the outside play area.

Thursday we took the kids to the aquarium. They have a really neat and HUGE aquarium there. The kids had so much fun!

The last day of our trip, we went to Lookout Mountain. We went to Rock City and it was so beautiful there. Strollers were not allowed due to all the tight squeezes and steps. The kids all had a nice work out. Even the adults too! :-)
