thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving weekend, my Mom and Dad took us on an AWESOME vacation. We started out here in HSV with an early lunch at the 88 buffet. Then we headed out to Atlanta. We got to our hotel and got settled in then we drove to our dinner destination, Medieval Times!!! I love this type of dinner show and was so excited to go with my family. The kids had a blast exploring the castle as we waited. During the show, Wes fell asleep (way past his bedtime) but Ella really enjoyed herself. She was given a flower from "our" knight, and when it got to the joust, she was chosen by our knight to be his banner holder He gave her a sash that said, "The Queen of Love and Beauty" she was VERY pleased with herself and we made sure to go after and get her picture with him. I loved the show and watching all the knightly tournament-y things. The food was also AWESOME! After the show, we decided to do one of their picture things so we all got to dress up in some cool medieval clothes and have our pictures taken. Mom has the copies of the pictures, so I can't post them today, but I did take an extra one of Dad and Jon in their kingly attire. A super thanks giving day.

After the show we went back to the hotel to sleep. The next day we headed over to Tennessee. We took the scenic route and enjoyed the mountain views. We stopped at a beautiful little river and climbed around on the rocks and took pictures. I don't have the Dollywood pictures uploaded yet, so I will stop here, but I will add the rest of our vacation in a later post.
