Pictures from the Weekend

As I already said, Will and I had such a wonderful time together in Chattanooga! How I love my William :-) Here is a photo-tour of our weekend:

This was Sunday night after we arrived. We ate at a Italian restaurant in the art district. It was an older, really cool building and we got to eat on the 2nd floor which was sort of fun and out of the ordinary. From this picture, my food looks really gross, but it was actually delicious! Here I am on Monday morning standing outside of our hotel. I felt pretty funny standing there with my hand held up in the air waiting for Will to take the picture (I looked like I was making an oath) but I think the end result really looks like I am waving which was the goal :-)
Here I am in the aquarium! As we were driving home, Will said that this was his favorite part of the trip because I didn't realize that there was a top on this display and I wacked my head on it!
Here are a ton of trout. Someday perhaps I will catch one like this!
Thanks to Melanie, we made it a goal to find Candyland. We took a break from the aquarium in the middle of the day and made our way to bulk candy heaven! I LOVE bulk candy and have yet to find a really good place to get it here in Knoxville. We sat on a bench, drinking lemonade, and eating candy and nachos. A great mid-afternoon snack.

My favorite part of the aquarium...the SHARK TANK!!! I took almost 10 pictures of the sharks, but in most of them the sharks are either turned away or the picture is of only a portion of the shark...my shark photography skills are somewhat lacking :-)

Here we are in front of the shark tank.

This was in the butterfly garden. It was so cool because there were butterflies flying around everywhere and they were pretty tame! I had a couple land on my dress. I think they liked the color. Leaving the aquarium.
We walked around downtown for a while and came upon this wonderful old/used bookstore! Will bought me a little book to remember our trip!

We had been looking for Clumpies Ice Cream the whole day and finally found it! It was across the river on the other side of Chattanooga. Totally worth the walk!

After we ate our ice cream we walked back to the hotel where our car was parked and drove home. I am so grateful to have a husband who loves me so much and is so generous with his time and money and affection! As I have already told him, I would far rather spend one day with Will in Chattanooga than a whole month anywhere else without him. How great to be married to your best friend!
