Here we go again!



A new school year has begun! N has been excited, but I think she got a little nervous once we got there. I'll be thinking of her all day... E was excited as well, daddy took her to school. I can't wait to hear all about their first day this afternoon!

Space Camp



We decided to take one last little vacation before school starts!

We left on a Friday morning, drove to Memphis for lunch at Rendezvous - GREAT BBQ! We walked around Memphis a little, but it was pretty hot so we decided to move on and plan to visit Memphis again when it gets a little cooler.

We then drove on to Huntsville, Alabama. Our hotel was awesome! I think this was the highlight of the trip for the girls! It was a two room suite with two flat screen TVs, inside pool, glass elevators, and lots of fountains indoors. I definitely recommend Embassy Suites for family vacations! Our first night we ordered pizza to be delivered to our hotel room and swam. The beds were awesome! We all slept so well!

Saturday we visited the Space Museum in Huntsville. We ended up spending most of the day there and learned so much! After this we drove by some Antebellum homes in Huntsville, then went out to eat at Landry's, then back to the hotel to swim some more!

On our way home Sunday, we stopped by the birthplace of Helen Keller in Tuscumbia. We found this very interesting as well. E's been learning about Helen Keller so it was fun for her to see where she lived as a child.

We love family vacations! They can be exhausting at times, and we did have to pull over a few times to calm some little ones down, but overall we had a great time together!
