Touring Nashville!

After an amazing Thanksgiving at the McDugalds, it was time to tour Nashville!  Such a cool city.  Lively, entertaining, fun!

We got some candy...

Checked out the Titans stadium.

All the sights!

We found a gorgeous, fall tree.

Walker loved the "batman" building.

We were repping the Frogs!! (Big game against Baylor!)

Daddy and daughter…. she's his mini-me.

Checking out Tootsie's.

It was a great day and a perfect ending to our very fabulous Thanksgiving road trip.  Nashville, we will be back!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We were all so excited for Thanksgiving to arrive!  We got to spend it with a big family at Aunt Linda and Uncle Jims!

But, first a few pics at the Gaylord.

Our precious blessings:

They are so fun:

Everly learning some photography:

Anna teaching her some art:

Epic football battle!

Only a cheerleader, not a participant:

Serious stuff!

They had a blast!

Girls playing ping pong!

Bubba still has it!

Some great group shots:

And, the picture both the Woods and McDugalds were looking so forward to….

Yep, that's everyone!  Thanks to Meredith's timer!  It was a really wonderful Thanksgiving.  We don't see this side of the family very often, but we will try to do it more, because we all had such a great time!!!!

Fun with Family

The day before Thanksgiving we got an exclusive tour by Megan.  She is in charge of all the plants and flowers!  So beautiful!

It was the first time for Walker and Everly to meet Maggie, Brock and Avery.  So fun to have new cousins close to their age!

We enjoyed exploring!

And, they were all very good to pose for pictures!

Love this one!

Walker and Brock were fast friends!

And, when it got dark, the kids got to go sledding and we went to ICE!

Such cuties!

Our precious ballerina!

Goodness it was cold in there!

It was a very full day! These babes were sleeping good….

And, gearing up for a great Thanksgiving day!

Road Tripping

In a very exciting turn of events, ALL of the Woods made a plan to go to Nashville to be with ALL of the McDugalds for Thanksgiving.  So fun!

We decided to make it an ultimate adventure and drive to Tennessee.  Walker and Everly were amazing travelers and we had an absolute blast!

Here's the beginning of the trip!

Lots of movies, books and coloring to keep them entertained!

They loved going into a new state!

No Tennessee state pic, but we made it to Memphis!  We stopped in the Peabody:

And, celebrated our fabulous day with some dinner:

Then, we woke up and hit the Memphis Zoo!  It was great.

Walker's new favorite animal… a cougar (thanks to his new school!):

Cheetahs:

First time seeing a panda!

Then after the zoo, we went to Graceland!!!!

We didn't go in, but it was very cool to see.  Walker and Everly got a little Elvis history lesson.

Then a few hours later…. Hello Opryland!!!!

What a view! And, an awesome start to our Nashville vacation!

November Catch Up

 Just wanted to share some quick hits.  Here are the darling babes at church!

And, Walker officially lost his training wheels!   Such an awesome little bike rider.

This girl is just too cute for words:

Everly was a precious little Indian at her Thanksgiving program and feast:

And, I got my hair done even crazier.

I've been loving the purple during football season.  Go Frogs.

Early Thanksgiving

Ryder and Savannah came to see us for an early Thanksgiving!  We had a great time.  We all love it when they are around!

Ryder got to watch Walker's last two soccer games….  Everly was happy to have a watching buddy:

He did great!

Then we all had some fun at Bunny and RayRays!

And, we all went to the dogs.

A great way to begin the start of the holiday season!
