A New BLOG :)

So here it is!! The beginning, again. Trying to start the summer with a few changes. Deleting my FB, and starting this blog to share our adventures with family and friends.

We have been out of school for a week now, and every time my sweet Jakob asks me how my summer is going so far, all I have to say is AWESOME!!!!!

We took an overnight trip to Chattanooga, TN on Tuesday. Started the night up there with supper at Red Lobster. The guys all had snow crab legs, and I had the shrimp platter. Luckily they shared a few bites with me, and the bottomless pit (aka Jakob) finished off my pasta. After a swim at the hotel, the boys spent about an hour goofing off with friends by text and face time (have to love some free hotel WiFi), while Skoot and I tried to watch the Hatfield and McCoy series.

Wednesday morning we got up early to take Skoot down the road to work. After breakfast at the hotel, we headed off to Rock City on top of Lookout Mountain. Both boys have been once before, but Topher did not remember any of it. They LOVED Rock City, and I was so glad I had the opportunity to share the experience with them. I LOVED it too as a child.

After a short trip to the mall, we picked up Skoot, and headed back up the mountain to Ruby Falls. Again, the boys LOVED it!!! This short trip was a great way to end the month of May, and start our summer break.

June will find us at the baseball field with Topher, as he plays on a Dizzy Dean All Star team. We will also be at Lupton with Jakob, as he goes through summer workouts with the basketball team. Yep, my baby is going in to 7th grade, and made the team!!! Planning a few things for July, but nothing concrete. Looking forward to sharing our adventures.

I will try to add pictures soon.  KW
