chattanooga

 We spent the weekend in Chattanooga.  When we moved out here we decided we were going to try to use the weekends to see and do everything we could because we don't know how long we will be here...although we hope it is for a long, long, long time of course.  It's just that last time we thought it was going to be forever so we don't want to get our hopes up I guess.
 Anyway, we had a great time!  We left Friday when Jeff got home.  We stayed the night in a hotel, which the girls still think is the coolest thing on the planet.
 We drove around Chattanooga in the morning checking it all out.  There are so many things to do there, but we decided to take the incline up Lookout Mountain.  The girls wanted to go on a train so this was what they wanted to do.  Caimbree absolutely loved the little ride and so did the big girls!  It just wasn't long enough for them.  It was a beautiful ride.
 The view from the top was pretty incredible!  The girls loved looking from the observation decks.
 I think Caimbree was pretty enthralled with the whole thing.  Well actually, she seems to be happy and enjoy wherever we go.
 We went on a little hike at the top and checked out a little civil war history.
 I love this picture of my little Zanny Zoo.  Oh, and now she calls our place the "rental house".  Oh my hilarious.  She insists on wearing her "running shorts" wherever we go now.  So cute.
We were going to go to the Tennessee State Aquarium but it was quite pricey and we decided we didn't have enough time to really justify spending $100.  There was a cool area with pools of water that kids were playing in and it was so fun for them and it was free so it was a win all around.  They did not want to leave.  I think we might be doing a little swimming this summer!  It was a fun weekend and we had a blast checking out Chattanooga!  We hope to go back again sometime soon.
