Chattanooga






This week Brad's parents took all their kids (and families) to Chattanooga for a couple days for some fun. We all drove up together yesterday and spent the night at the Chattanooga Choo Choo, which is the city's old train station. We had dinner at a super cute 50's diner called Cheeburger where we got to "design" our own dream burger and Chloe's kid's meal came in a cardboard Cadillac. Talk about awesome. Today we had a blast at the Chattanooga Aquarium and saw an IMAX movie in 3-D about orangutans and elephants in the wild. Chloe was not a fan of the imax theater from the time we stepped in it (something about a big dark room) so she and I spent the time running around outside the theater.

Today Chloe had some very proud firsts: she got to pet her first sting ray as well as her first snake. The snake was an albino king snake who was very friendly but Chloe and I were the only ones who wanted to pet it. Chloe even got a sticker for her bravery. That's my girl.
The drive home was nice and Chloe slept most of the way. This evening we spending it at Brad's parent's house so tomorrow morning we can have a big family Christmas with presents and food before everyone disperses to do their individual Christmas plans next week.
