Chattanooga

This past weekend we took a short family vacation to Chattanooga, TN. I had not been in many years and we thought that it would be the perfect time of year to go. The weather was wonderful and the leaves were just starting to change. Tre really enjoyed the trip. Below are pictures of some of the fun things we did.
Tre and Scott on the Chattanooga Choo Choo.

At night there were horse and carriage rides. We did not ride, but Tre had the opportunity to pet the horse. In this picture he seems a little scared. He did pet her but was a little unsure.

We went to the Children's Discovery Museum one afternoon. It was wonderful!! Tre had a blast and wore himself out. His favorite things were the water play areas and the toddler area with a kitchen, tree house, and train track.

Tre and Scott play in the water. All the other little ones played so gently with the ducks and boats. Tre splashed in the water and was soaking wet by the time we left. He definetly enjoyed himself. He slept 12 hours that night!! The longest he has ever slept. We look forward to taking him back to the museum, but we will make sure that we are well rested. Scott and I were worn out as well from chasing him through the play areas.


Before coming home we went to the Aquarium. Tre loves fish. In the picture above, we are in the butterfly garden. They were releasing new butterflies into the garden. Tre tried his best to catch one, but they were a little to quick for him.

Looking at all the fish in the aquarium.

There were areas in the aquarium where you could lye down or sit to view the fish.

Fish swim above Tre.

I was reminded once again of the splendor and beauty of God's creation. He is truly amazing!
