Last weekend, poor Heath had some last minute work to do on a house we are flipping (anyone want to buy a house in Lebanon?:), so Cade and I decided to go to Kingston to spend some time with his Nana and Pa Billy. The weekend started off great. We arrived early Friday and immediately went to see Dad at his school. The we headed off to the Knoxville Zoo with Mom. We could not get over how many renovations they have done there in the last few years. It was awesome, and we could not have picked a prettier day to go. I was eager to see how Cade would react to the zoo, but he absolutely loved it, and did not miss a beat. He loves to point right now, and would point at almost every exhibit we passed. He especially loved the penguins ("ducks" to him), and the river otters. He also took his first carousel ride, and tried his first Slush Puppy, both of which he loved.
The rest of the weekend was fun, too. On Saturday, we made a mandatory stop to Ella Minnow Pea to see Carrie, then went to visit one of my oldest friends from high school, Kaybe and her new husband, Bud.
Sunday, we concluded our trip with a trip to church. As many of you know, we attend a Church of Christ here in Lebanon (no background music, just singing). Mom and Dad go to a Baptist church that has a small band. I got tickled at Cade, because when they would play, he would sway back and forth with an arm in the air. I think he was just catching the Spirit:)!
We had a great trip, and can't wait to go back soon!
