sweet summertime

As a wife and momma with a job as a teacher, I treasure my summers.  I have to document these precious summers because I want to always remember them.  So, our summer, so far...

Mini vaca with gram and pop

The week after school got out Chancey and I took a road trip to Franklin, Tennessee with my parents.  It was a much needed kickoff to our summer break! 
My road trip buddy
The highlight of the trip for little man was the Nashville zoo!  It was way better than our local zoo, and we had a great afternoon checking out all the animals!
Excellent petting zoo!
Pop helping brush the goats.



 Chance was a little under the weather, and therefore a bit puny.  I didn't mind the extra cuddles!

what a bed hog, but a snuggly one
All ready to explore
He wouldn't eat much the while we were there, so we finally broke down and got his favorite- pizza!

Just like daddy!
My little gentleman insisted  on pulling our luggage

On the way back home we made one last stop at a local oddity.  It was interesting to say the least!  I'm not sure if he was impressed or not!  He wanted the bird to land on his arm, but instead it landed on his hat.  Thank goodness for the hat, and for Gram, because I don't think I would have been as brave.

not too sure about the birds
now really not sure!
