Spring Break in TN

Last week the girls went to TN for spring break and to spend some time with Nana and Papaw. They were thrilled to be going. They love going to TN...especially without mommy and daddy in tow. 



They had lots of fun and Nana and Papaw had lots of good pictures to share. They went to an Easter Egg hunt at my parents church.

They had a gold and silver egg hid and the kid that found it would get a special prize. Mom said Katie was so determined to find one of those eggs that she didn't even pick up eggs that she found. Gotta love her competitive side...she gets it honest at least. By the end of the hunt Katie only had a few eggs in her basket.

They dyed some eggs to hind around the house.

I gave the Easter Bunny a heads up that the girls would be in TN...so he was nice enough to stop there for them.

All dressed up on Easter morning and ready to go to church. Two beautiful girls!

They took a trip to Gatlinburg TN to Ripley's Aquarium.

Getting an up close and personal view of the penguins.

I love how Katie is leaning back from the sting ray...as if it was going to get her.

What's in there Papaw??? I think he had to be the brave one and put his hand in the dark hole.

Hold your breath....so silly

Sweet sisters....this gives me hope that even thought they fight they really do love each other. :)

They love their Nana and Papaw

By mid week Nana wasn't feeling so good. She had a cold so Papaw had a day out with the girls so Nana could rest. Both the girls wanted to go to Bays Mountain.

 You can see that Katie has trained Bree how to join in the silly face photo's

 Checking out the animals.

 After Bays Mountain, they stopped by Eastman Park (we played here lots as kids) to let them play.

 This playground hasn't changed a bit.

Papaw also took them to see Matthew's soccer game he had that afternoon. I think the enjoyed their day with Papaw.

They had lots of play time at home and with Kevin, Brandy and Matthew. I know they had a blast and each time we talked to them on the phone we got an ear full of that they did. They are already asking about when they get to go back this summer. Thanks to Nana and Papaw for giving them a fun spring break and also giving Chris and I some time on our own!
