Stalagtites, Seafood, and Sunflare!

Fun Monday update!

This Monday we headed out to see one of Chattanooga's tourist traps! We are always finding these that we haven't seen before, and it is so fun to explore all of them. This week we hit up Raccoon Mountain, and explored the cavern! Austen says this is one of the most fun places he has ever been!

The car ride up the mountain...





Austen desperately needs a haircut.



The caverns...









After our cave exploring, we went out to eat at Easy Seafood with our wonderful friends Matt and Erin Dunmore. (Thank you, Amanda for the amazing treat!)









Erin's debut on our blog...



Then we took a little walk. The amazing Matt grabbed these great shots of my kids! (with a Nikon, nontheless!)









Then we headed to the playground. Of course, we had to take advantage of the absolutely amazing light that abounds in Chattanooga these days!

Nathan is the master of self portraits with flare! I love this shot!



More light...



Addison has overcome her fear of "Scary Matt."



Finally, a few images from the playground.



Austen and Matt took turns on the yellow spinny thing... I think Austen handled it a little better than Matt!





It was a wonderful day! Thanks so much to Matt and Erin for joining us.

and to my amazing family for being so wonderful to me. I love you very much.
