Father's Day

Saturday we spent the day with Drew's dad at Granny's. We had a good time just hanging out and telling old stories. I'll be sure not to ask about Leon and the can opener again. . . Lee and Tammy. Just kidding. Sunday we went to my parents house and celebrated my Dad's birthday, my sister's birthday and our niece and nephews, Emme and Matthew's birthday and of course Father's Day. June is a busy month! Here are a few pictures.

Spontaneous trip to Tennessee

The weekend before last we took a spontaneous trip to Chattanooga. I say spontaneous because we had planned to go somewhere that weekend,but between the four of us we could not decide where to go and we all had a lot of stuff to do that weekend. As it turned out we really had our hearts set on getting away for the weekend. We booked the hotel Friday night and left early Saturday morning. Probably the most spontaneous you will ever see us get! We had a wonderful time in Rock City, Ruby Falls, and the Aquarium. We did a lot of stuff in the short time we were there, but it was actually relaxing and so nice to get away. As you can see we took a bunch of pictures!

This is where you can see 7 states

Tennessee Aquarium

This was taken from the longest pedestian (sp?) only bridge in the world! We found out after the fact...if only we walked across the whole bridge!

Ruby Falls

Ruby Falls was a little scary. I had always heard of Ruby Falls, but I had no idea it was in a cave! We walked a half mile into the cave and over 1100 ft under ground. We were at the tail end of our group and so our tour guide asked Drew to be the "Caboose". Whenever we got to a stopping point she called out Drew's name and Drew had to yell "Whoohoo!" It was pretty funny! When we went to the aquarium the next day we saw somebody who was in our group and they pointed to Drew and said there's the Caboose.

The waterfall is 125ft long. It was really pretty! And we all got a little wet from the spray and being underground!

Tennessee Aquarium

Our last stop in Chattanooga was the Tennessee Aquarium. It was great. I had gone many times before, but Drew and our friends had never been. Drew got to feed a string ray and we both got to touch one. That was werid, but neat. Once again there is a lot of pictures. I had a hard time deciding which ones to post.

It is a leopard print sting ray!
The string ray came right up to Drew and just sat on his hand for minute. It was the neatest thing!

This is me touching an actual shark! Yeah, that is a shark!
