Our Road Trip from MEM to ATL

Last week was our spring break here in Memphis, TN. Now that the girls are older and both have more patience for car rides as well as more interest in seeing and learning new things, we decided to take a road trip. To Atlanta! It was 6.5 hours from door-to-door, and that included 3 stops….

A Tourist in my own City: Memphis, TN

Travel used to be one of Craig and my favorite things to do. I say “used to” because having kids changes everything. After we moved out of Memphis in 2007, we obviously never expected we’d move back 17 months later started to talk about how it was such a shame we didn’t go here or there,…

I wish they came in my size

Last weekend we took the girls for a family outing to see Disney on Ice at the FedEx Forum in downtown Memphis. How Maddie viewed Disney on Ice. Perched on my lap was Kate. What we viewed… After the show, I got a proper Flower Bud Hat photo. And the requisite food photo (which was…

From Shark Week to Dino Digs

The Creative Discovery Museum is also downtown, near the water, and very walkable from our hotel. We have been to a few kids’…

Too Much of a Good Thing!

Today is Thursday, and you know what that means! This week’s chosen prompt: 4.) Photographs can turn a house into a home. Share a photograph that is not on your wall, but should be…if you weren’t so lazy about actually putting it there. The reason for my lack of hanging really isn’t laziness; it’s because…

A Little Taste of New Orleans

Our neighbors invited us to their annual crawfish boil.  Wade is from New Orleans, and has been hosting this annual event for the past 8 years. Neither of us had ever been to a crawfish boil.  And neither of us knew the *proper* way to eat a crawfish. But Wade was sure eager to show us. He served…

Orlando Vaca – Part 3

At last!  My final installment of all things Disney! This one post is dedicated to the 4 magical, wonderful, tantrum-free hours that occurred the Sunday of our trip.  It was just me and Kate against the world, and already those 4 hours have quickly become what I think of when I remember our trip. **************************************…
