I have great traveling troops. Saturday we all drove over to Spanish Fort, AL to take a peek at a truck that Brian was interested in buying (which he ended up getting... see next blog). We didn't expect to be gone all day, but I have to tell you... the kids were great! Here they are staying entertained in the back of the car while we waste some time at the dealership. With the AC pumping to keep them cool in the HOT, HUMID heat, Mommy's car was a great place to hang out for a short bit.
After leaving the dealership, we headed over to the shopping at Spanish Fort (much better than what we have in FWB or even Pensacola). I had to stop for gas and this is what awaited us there. Man, we really must be in Alabama! The nice thing about this stop with the JUMBO cow is...
... there were FREE ice cream samples for anyone who wanted it. I had one little 3-year-old boy who jumped at the chance to have ice cream! Traveling Troops were happy (actually Abby was sleeping so it was only Thomas who got to enjoy it).
After doing some "Mommy" shopping, we headed over to the new Bass Pro store for Daddy where Thomas was in hog heaven because of all the animals and fish found inside. Apparently Abby is quite content as well... but I think it was because she got to see her Aunt Jen & Uncle Ash who met us there (they were in Mobile).
A mesmerized little boy. The funniest comment out of Thomas was,
"Where are all the Mahi-Mahi and Tuna, Mommy?" I guess he just assumed that those fish could be kept in a large aquarium too. Too cute. Oh so innocent. Needless to say, on the drive home at 4:30pm that afternoon - both of my traveling troops were passed out cold. Tuckered little puppies.
