Tennessee

A couple weekends ago we drove up to visit Dave's parents. We decided to try something a little new and leave in the afternoon/early evening. Neither of our girls are good car sleepers, so we weren't exactly sure how it was going to go, but we thought it worth a try. Of course we ended up leaving later than we had hoped, and then drove through/followed a major storm. All in all the trip a bit longer than we hoped, but the girls did sleep a little bit. Annelise fell asleep around 8.30 and HC fell asleep around 9.30. Well, at least they fell asleep!

We all had a great visit. We enjoyed a couple walks, and a trip to the flea market. At the flea market the girls had their first pony ride. They both did a great job, and even Annelise rode without much assistance. The girls had a good time playing with Grandma and Grandpa and Great-Grandma too.

Dave and I had a chance to go out alone which is always a special treat. He wanted to take me to a fish farm where we could catch our own fish and have it cooked any way we wanted. However after driving around the mountains for over an hour we determined that the place was closed. We ate somewhere else and then...here's a throw back...went to the drive-in. We watched Fast and Furious 4?5? It was fun. Before the movie started Dave had to figure out how to turn off the headlights in the car. We drove his mom's car and she has a sensor. He tried really hard, but to no avail, we ended up putting a rug over the hood of the car, so it all worked out.
