Trip to Savannah








This Memorial Day weekend, Coop and I drove to Savannah GA with my friend Megan. Her sister, Rebecca, and her family live there. We finally got on the rode at 4:00 Bham time and arrived in Savannah at 11:30. Coop had minimal meltdowns during the LONG ride to Savannah. Tip: Do Not stop a truck stop gas station with a 2 1/2 year old. There were SO many over priced toys in there it was RIDICULOUS!! But we got out of there without spending a dime. I had to ride in the back with Coop most of the way and reminded that I get a bit car seat when I ride in the back. But it made Cooper happier to have me spending time with him while on the road. Lily, Hanz, and Rebecca greeted us when we arrived. Coop was wide awake and ready to "play". He did sleep for the first few hours of our trip. We were all exhausted, so we headed to bed after we chatted for a bit. For most of our trip, it rained. But it was still great to be away from Bham. We went to the River Walk, ate good food, shopped at the Outlets, and the grownups played guitar hero rockstar. That was Mommy's first time. And it was a lot of fun. I think that Coop had a crush on Becca's 7 month old, Lily. He told her that she was a "pretty baby" one morning. And held her hand everytime we got in the car. It was the cutest thing!

Thank you Welo family for welcoming us into your beautiful home. We had such a good time! Hope to visit again when it is sunny outside :)
