Family Fun Day

Yesterday, we took a MUCH NEEDED family fun day. Everyone has been a little tense & snappy lately. My husband has been working hard at his two jobs and volunteering at church and really needed a break to just be daddy.

So, we loaded everyone up - and let me tell you, packing for a day trip for a family of seven takes almost as long as packing for an overnighter! Goodness gracious!! But, better to be prepared, right?


Chattanooga Zoo - Picnic beforehand :)

We try to get a pic at this spot each time we go :)
 
The two oldest got to ride a camel! Exciting!
 
A sweet brother moment at the zoo

'What do you mean I can't drive us to the park?!?'

Time to cool down!

'Weeee!! I can fly!'

'Hmm... No one will notice if I eat the last of the watermelon...'

A totally relaxed daddy enjoying his children :)



We saw tensions melt. Siblings bond. Memories being made.

That, my dear friends, makes a GREAT day!

  3. Thanks, mommy of Five! Congratulations on your tenth anniversary! We 'escaped' to a B&B for our 7th & loved every moment of it! Perhaps one day we will do that again... We will be celebrating 16 years this fall... Where did the time go? Lol!
