Tagging Along

Shae recently presented at a workshop for professionals at Callaway Gardens. Not only are we very proud of Shae, but Teddy and I were more than happy to tag along for three days. I am not sure what excited Teddy the most- but it may have been the fact that he got to pack and then pull his very own suitcase!

Or maybe his favorite part of the trip was the hotel room. In fact, at the end of our trip he repeatedly said, "I don't want to go to Teddy's house. I want to go to the hotel." Maybe it was the big flat screen TV and maybe it was the cartoons we let him watch while were there. Maybe it was the cake pops he got to eat:

or maybe it was the comfy bed:

We had a blast (I felt bad for Shae who had to work every day while we played). We had a pass to do all kinds of activities through out the gardens. Teddy was so much fun to spend time with! We enjoyed the Birds of Prey show so much on Tuesday that we went back again on Wed. This is Olivia the owl (she flew right over our heads several times):

Another of Teddy's favorite things to do was sit in the many rocking chairs through out the gardens:

The gardens were gorgeous. Here is Teddy at the Horticulture Center:

Teddy explored the children's path through out the gardens:

Another big highlight of the trip was the pool. Although it was overcast, they kept the outdoor pool at 80 degrees.

We enjoyed snack time from our lovely deck:

Another really cool thing we did was go to the Butterfly Garden. Although it turned out to be quite a hike, it was worth it. You can't see them in any of the photos, but inside there are lots and lots of butterflies everywhere. Teddy had a great time chasing them:

I think he had a good time on our trip:

Unfortunately, when we got home, Shae was under the weather. When Shae stayed home from work Thursday, Teddy kept him company:
Which gave me time to make some cake pops. My neighbor had an Angry Bird party for her son's 3rd birthday and ordered some cake pops from me:
(Teddy and Shae got to eat the "practice" ones earlier in the week). Shae did do some work while we was at home sick. His minnie-me was right there with him, also on his computer:
