This year my parents and us decided since my brother and his wifey can't fly right now with their baby, that we would go to them for Thanksgiving. My brother Jason and Jenny had a baby girl, Emma six months ago. She has some heart problems so the only way to see them is to go to them. So this past Monday, my parents, Ty, Issy and I headed out to Tennessee. We flew into Nashiville Monday night and we stayed at the Opryland Hotel. It was a amazing hotel with a water fall in the middle of it and cute shops and eating places. We enjoyed walking around to the shops and seeing the amazing hotel.
Tuesday after going through some shops we drove the couple hours south to Chattanooga, Tennessee. Actually my brother lives outside of Chattanooga in a town called Soddy Daisy, Tennessee. We met him and his wife and baby at a fun Japanese restaurant with my sister-in-law Jenny's family who also lives in Soddy Daisy. We enjoyed eating and seeing our cute little niece Emma. After dinner, we checked into our hotel and headed over to my bros beautiful home. They live up a mountain on a golf course on a couple of acres. Their house is beautiful. Issy was so excited to see her Uncle Jason. They have a great phone relationship so it was fun for her to see him in person.
Issy also loved seeing Uncle Jason and Aunt Jenny's dog, Charlie.
Wednesday morning we woke up late after sleeping in. The 3 hour time difference was kind of hard on our bodies, especially Issy. We headed into Chattanooga for some lunch and then we met my bro and his family at the Chattanooga Aquarium. Jason and Jenny had to head to the doctor unexpectantly so they left little Emma with us as we went through this amazing Aquarium. It is one of the biggest I have ever seen. It had two sections, the Ocean and the River. Issy loved it and it was fun to see her excitment going through it. They even had a butterfly exhibit that you could touch the butterflies. We had a great time!
After the Aquarium, we headed back to my bros house for the night to hang out, eat dinner and play games. It was fun to just spend time with them. It is also so neat for me to see my twin brother as a dad. He is such a good daddy!:)
Thanksgiving day we woke up and had breakfast at IHOP. Nothing like good old IHOP to start a day!:) We then headed to my sister-in-law Jenny's parents house for the day. They made a huge Thanksgiving feast. We ate, watched football, played games and enjoyed hanging out for the day. It was a really great day! My mom bought matching dresses for Issy and little Emma so we got some cute pictures as well. It was a great relaxing Thanksgiving, that is for sure.
Friday we got up and did some shopping with my brother. We then headed the couple hours back to Nashville and headed home to Seattle. Thanks, Jason and Jenny and sweet sweet little Emma for a nice trip. We sure do love you!
