We Can Be Spontaneous Again!!!

We've had a busy summer. Really busy. We bought a house. Brannon worked & traveled ALOT. We did a major home renovation on the house while he traveled. We moved into a partially finished remodeled home. All this with a baby and a two year old. Busy. So, when Brannon had a little break (over a weekend, mind you, which working on weekends has been a large part of the busy summer!), where he actually didn't have to work that weekend like a normal person. And we could be a normal family :)

So, he came home that Friday and we had dinner and were done eating and cleaning up by like 6:30. Pretty early for us. We were trying to decide what our plans were for the weekend. I wanted to go up to a big pumpkin patch in north georgia on Saturday. He said, why don't we just go ahead and drive up there tonight so we can have the whole day to do stuff up in the mountains. I couldn't think of a reason we couldn't do it......So we just started getting ready, bathing the girls, packing, and he looked up places to stay and what to do. And by 9pm, we were on the road with girls in their pjs ready for sleeping in the car!

His research online had led him to decide that we should head on to Chattanooga since it was only about 30-45 minutes further than where we would be in north georgia. And he wanted to go to Ruby Falls and Rock City. We had a great time. I was totally impressed with Mackenzie because each place required about a mile walk. She did it no problem! And Keelyn, of course, just chilled in the Ergo carrier! It was fun to take our first little family trip. I look forward to many, many more adventures with my crew in the coming years :)
