Weekend Trip to Chattanooga...

A friend and I were excited to learn that a reality TV star and entrepreneur would be coming to TN to speak at a women's expo. Last minute, we decided to make plans for a multi-family mini vacation to Chattanooga. We drove over early Saturday morning and hung out until it was time for the mommies to go to their "meeting". We met the guys and kids for dinner afterward and played at the hotel (including a surprise fireworks display curtesy of the nearby baseball stadium) until bedtime. The next day we rode the free electric shuttle to the Choo Choo, rode the trolley there, walked to lunch on the bluff and played at the children's museum. It was a long, but fun weekend! Looking forward to doing it again soon!

Skinny Girl's Bethenny Frankel! I guess I don't have a future as one of the paparazzi!?

It is such a crazy, small world! David was swimming with the boys at the hotel while we were at the expo. He came up for a breath facing the hallway into the lobby when he saw our longtime friends, Trevor and Mary, walking by. They all did a double take. Trevor and Mary happened to stop in Chattanooga on their way back home to NC. They just happened to choose to stay at the same hotel where we were staying. And they just happened to walk by that tiny window at the exact same time David came up for a breath! WOW! They were able to join us for dinner and we had a great time catching up.

Sweet Finley! She was such a trooper...she didn't miss a beat even though she was fighting a cold. She has such a cute personality...so independent, it's cute!
