Space and Rocket Center
The kids were having SAT tests during the time Grandma was here so they weren't able to skip school and come with us, so it was just us and Jordan. The Space and Rocket Center just built a new building to hold the Saturn V. Seeing it laying on it's side like that was really amazing.
A view from the top of Saturn V.

Botanical Gardens
We were blessed with a beautiful day to go to the Gardens! It wasn't too hot or too cold and no rain in sight!
We met my mom and some friends of mine for a picnic lunch then spent hours walking around enjoying the spring flowers.
Jordan was so excited to see Daddy! John joined us for a little while after work was over.
The historic dogwood tree was in full bloom!
So beautiful! Marilynn said it makes her think of heaven.
Antiquing in Fayetteville, TN
We met my mom in downtown Fayetteville to shop for antiques and have lunch. We all found some wonderful things.
Tennessee Aquarium
We all enjoyed our visit to the aquarium.
Petting the stingrays and little sharks.
They had penguins this time!
Under the aquarium.
Last night together
We let the kids stay up late and we played games with Grandma.
Greed was fun.
Then the first round of Dominoes Natalee went out first turn!
Then we gathered to say family prayer and have the kids show out for grandma. They did tricks and all sorts of silly things. Gavin left the room, then walked in wearing Grandma's shoes, on his knees, lol. Of course the girls had to try it out.
It was great!
We miss Grandma already! We can't wait until her next visit.

That dogwood makes me think of the the tree from Lehi's vision.
My fave pic of the bunch is the one of Jordan in Fayetteville peaking around the pole. Man, that is one adorable kid.
