 Being silly

 Brothers against Sisters- Chicken Wars

 Cooper just chilling on the patio deck

 Back to the Chicken Wars

 A visit with Uncle Caleb would not be complete without a bit of tormenting of his nieces and nephews.

You can see how Cooper felt about his tormenting- he came to find his Mama

 Back to his bucket

 With the Chicken Wars done-the girls enjoyed a few more jumps around the pool before coming in for dinner.

 We are having a great vacation- relaxing and making memories together.

Beach Fun

We finally made it to Grammies' :)

and a trip to Grammies' would not be complete without a visit to the beach.

The kids had a blast playing in the sand and building castles.

 Lillian was great at hauling buckets of water.

 Grampie smack dab in the middle

 Cooper and his "Di"

 Cousin Chloe

 Cousin Fun- Thanks Christian, Chloe and Aunt Wendy for coming to the beach with us.

Next stop... Uncle Caleb's pool

Chattanooga Choo Choo

We decided to break up our drive to Florida over a couple of days.

We left after church on Sunday and drove to our friends house in Spring Hill, TN. We had a wonderful visit and enjoyed a yummy dinner and a game of Tri-ominoes.

Monday morning we rose early and drove to our first stop- Chattanooga Tennessee to see the trains.
(Just 2 hours from our overnight stop).

The kids had a blast exploring the trains.

 Lillian loved singing the "Little Red Caboose" song

 Cooper's favorite part was the rocks

 And more rocks

 A boy and his train

 Walking along the trains

 Check out how dirty he is.
Cooper is all boy- dirt, Rocks and Choo Choo's

Back in the car and heading toward Florida

The next stop- Aunt Sue's house
