Vacation - Chattanooga!

We decided to take a weekend trip up to Chattanooga and we had a blast! Yaya is here and we want to show her around and as much as we can! I took Friday off and we headed up early Friday morning. We stayed 2 nights downtown at the Marriott and it was fabulous. A great hotel, comfortable, quiet and all he amenities one would need/want! Our first stop was Swanee college and it is beautiful. Scott looked at going there after he graduated high school, so it was awesome to have him show me around and listen to his stories! We stopped at the book store and of course he had to get a t-shirt! He wouldn't be Scott if he didn't. Charlie got a new book and Addison got a little bear. We also got a pin for father Robert because that is where he went to school. He is our priest back in California and baptized both of  the girls. We thought it would be nice to send him something.

Next we went to Ruby Falls and it was incredible. We took a long hike deep down into a cave. The cave was beautiful. I had never seen anything like it before. We all loved it. The girls were fantastic! Charlie walked the whole way and Scott and I took turns holding Addison. She wasn't fussy at all and she got a kick out of all the light changes, water, and the texture on the rocks that we were surrounded by. Charlie was such a big girl for walking and was amazed by the whole experiment. She had a blast. By the time we got to the waterfall, we were blown away. The experience literally took my breath away. We thought it was so cool. It was loud and cool of course, but it is definitely one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. They have a walk way around the water fall so you can even walk behind it and look up. We got some pictures, but it truly doesn't do this natural site justice.
