We really need a selfie stick! We stuck them three across, and packed up lots of play things because we were going to do the drive there in one day. They actually all did really well! They rotated between movies, toys, books, art, and legos. The legos were one of the best investments. They were so quiet for a really long time!
In order to not eat out so much we packed a cooler, and we stopped in Arkansas to have lunch. We got delayed a bit because we were able to stop in Little Rock and see our friends Matt and Angela and meet their new baby girl Joy. It was a very special time and I'm so glad we stopped. Hoping to get to see their other little girl Amelia next time.
We stayed at Montgomery Bell State Park for the first part of our trip. We got in so late the first night so we don't have any pictures until the next morning. Chris didn't have to be at his conference until that afternoon so we were able to explore a little bit. It was gorgeous around the inn. The kids wanted to paddle boat right away.
See we really need a self stick!
That afternoon we took Chris to Lipscomb and I took the kids to the science museum. It was free since we could reciprocate with our science museum membership! They had a really cool exhibit about dogs. Todd is educating the museum volunteer about coyotes that he picked up from Hank the Cowdog.
Elle really liked this play area where you could slide through the "small intestine" and it was make a sound like passing gas when you came out. (sigh!)
After playing at the museum we swung by the store to pick up more groceries, and then played and picnicked at Lipscomb while we waited for Chris to finish his evening.
]The next two days the kids and I stayed at the park while Chris went to the conference. We played around the inn, and they're favorite thing was swimming in the lake. They even didn't mind the fish that would come swimming up.
