Nashville Road Trip

At Christmas, Tim and I wrote Caden a note for him to open saying we were going on a road trip to visit Nashville our potential future home!

Here is Caden leaving that first morning from Plano.  Thank you to Angie for watching our Cameron while we were gone!
 Left over snow on the roads leaving Texas!

 We took a different route due to the horrible road conditions in Arkansas.  We went through Louisiana!
 We had to stop in West Monroe to visit the site of Duck Dynasty!
 Caden got to pose with Godwin!  He was so nice to Caden and it was fun for him to meet a celebrity!
 Daddy got a new cap!
 So did Mommy!
 On through Mississippi!
Tim sat Caden on top of this canon and Caden freaked out and said 'Is it going to shoot me out of it?'  We were dying laughing!
 Sweet Caden!
 Caden took a picture of his parents!
By night fall we hit Alabama!  Here is a picture I took of Tim taking a picture of Caden!
 We visited Daddy's future work site, Opryland Hotel!
 It is a beautiful hotel that makes the Texan look so tiny!
Caden with Jack Daniels!
 Beautiful Christmas decor!
 We then headed to the Oprymills Mall and Caden road the carousel.
 Of course he swam in our hotel pool too!
Great family road trip!
