Suprise Visit

This weekend we made our 2nd annual trip to see the Bramletts in Florida. We had a blast! I am starting with the end of our trip first, and I'll do the rest in another post.

On the way home from Florida, we decided to break up our trip and stop to spend the night at a hotel in Knoxville. Ben's sister lives there, but we didn't get in until later in the evening and didn't want to bother her that night, so we decided to go suprise her at her school the next morning. She is a music teacher at one of the inner-city elementary schools. The kids had actually already gotten out for the summer, and this was her last teacher work-day, so I'm glad we caught her!

Boy, was she shocked!! I got this awesome picture of her reaction when she saw Ben:

Even though the whole classroom was all packed up, Izzy still got to play with some cool instruments. She calls this one an "isophone". :) (Yes, I know she is in need of a haircut.)

Cool drum that was almost as tall as her:

Then we went down to the gym and broke out one of the footballs. We had the whole place to ourselves, so Izzy could run wild. It was great.
Check out this action shot:

Playing football with Aunt Meggie:

For some reason she has been crawling a lot lately. Maybe she thought the floor needed to be cleaned. I don't know.

Isabelle, Daddy, and Aunt Meggie:

Anyway, we had a short but great visit with Megan. Thanks Meggie, for showing us around your school!

After that, we headed home after a very long but wonderful trip! More details to come soon!
