Opry Land

My dad arrived last night to pick up my mom and take her back home (she has been with us for 6 weeks now). They will be here until Monday. So we are busy site seeing over the next couple of days. Today we went to the "Grand Ole Opry Museum", the "Opryland Hotel", and "Opry Mills Mall".


The kids were so GOOD today. They enjoyed getting out of the house for the day. It was nice taking a break from "projects" here at the house.

We enjoyed walking around the Opryland Hotel and Convention Center. (I didn't take this picture. I was having problems with my camera today. So I only was able to take 1/4 of the pictures I had planned on taking)

At the Opryland Hotel they have this lady on stilts that is dressed up like this. It was really fun watching her move around. She is very flexible and she posed many different ways that you would see real ivy doing.


The kids all enjoyed watching the water falls and fish in the water.

LoriAnne actually got her head stuck in the fence.

Jonathan is a happy boy after he finished his lunch at the food court at the Opry Mills Mall.

My dad promised the girls a carousel ride after they ate lunch. The girls somehow talked papa into going on the "tea cup" like spinning thing.

  1. That lady on stilts is amazing. Looking at the picture I just thought it was a plant and then I read and wow. That is crazy!

  3. We are having to come and visit you and see all the fun things. I bet you are sad to have your family go home. It is always so nice to have an extra pair of hands to help with all the projects that go along with moving. The kiddos are all getting so big. I miss our play days with your girls and the Ferguson girls.
