We left Saturday morning around 5 am and began the LONG drive to Orlando. We stopped at the Florida sign for our traditional photo. Don’t you love the “Open For Business” sign above our heads? 🙂 We didn’t get to our hotel until late, so we spent the first night just getting settled. Shout out to the Hampton Inn–it’s our favorite. We try to stay at one whenever we can… Read More
Last weekend we went on yet another getaway. Â I know, we’re rivaling the Kardashians, right? Â Only, I’m pretty sure they don’t do their own laundry…. Anyways, we traveled to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee with a few of my teacher friends and their kids. Â Quite a cute crew, am I right? We stayed at the Inn at Christmas Place. Â They celebrate Christmas year round! Â When we got there on Friday night, they.. Read More
We got home late Sunday night from a quick weekend trip to Arkansas to see my sister-and-brother-in-law and their adorable, precious, perfect new baby boy. We left Thursday evening around 8:00 and made it just past Memphis before stopping for the night. At one point, all three girls looked like this: Now THAT is some good sleeping! We reached Luke and Kristi’s house around 1pm on Friday and immediately began.. Read More
I have to start this post with a photo of my favorite spectators. After dropping me off at the start line, they were able to grab breakfast and then wait in the warm car before coming out to cheer me in for the finish. I was so happy to hear their voices. (It did hurt a little when Libby said, “Mommy, I didn’t think you were ever going to finish!” Thanks,.. Read More
On our trip to Callaway Gardens, we drove about 15 minutes south to explore the Pine Mountain Animal Safari. It is a drive-through safari and zoo. This is the entrance. They have a cattle gap that makes it impossible for the animals to get out, but all those animals are right there waiting on you to come in. This was our ride. Justin got to drive it, which he though.. Read More
This weekend, we traveled to Pine Mountain, Georgia. Â It was about a 4 hour trip and we didn’t leave until after school. Â With the time change, we arrived at the Mountain Creek Inn around 10pm, Eastern Time. Â We checked in, went to our rooms, and fell straight into bed. The room was pretty standard, with a king size bed and a small bathroom. Â The Mountain Creek Inn does have a.. Read More
We had an amazing week on the slopes. I’ve found a new favorite activity in snow skiing, and so have the girls 🙂 We left on the 26th and spent 5 nights at Beech Mountain, North Carolina. I know it’s not Colorado, but for this southern girl, it was AWESOME! The trip there took about 8 hours, but thanks to Santa’s gifts of Ipad minis, the girls stayed very well.. Read More
Here is part 2 of our Disney trip:
Finally, here is our Disney recap. Part 1 of it anyways. This year, I decided to do our album a little differently. I did an ABC album of our trip. Here’s the first part of it:
For the past two days, we have been on a mini-vacay to Atlanta, Georgia, with some of our very best friends. Can I just say that I have no clue how people traveled before technology? Between Ipods and DVD players, there was hardly a peep from all four kids on the entire 4 hour drive! Of course, all the IPod playing, DVD watching, and car riding did make a certain someone..
