Amelia has now added the states of Tennessee and Kentucky to her list, OK maybe it is our list, of places she has traveled to. For the Easter weekend Amelia made her first trip up to Mimi Witte’s home in Louisville, KY. Since she needs a break from her car seat at around four hours we stopped overnight in Nashville, TN and took in the sights.
Once in Louisville, Amelia got familiar with a new crib ,purchased just for her, in Mimi Witte’s house. Amelia had a visit to the famed Churchill Downs and her parent’s favorite shops on Bardstown road. But this trip wasn’t just about places it was about people. Amelia was introduced to other members of her family when Uncle Ken, Aunt Susan and Cousin Amanda Witte came down from the Chicago area to meet her. The day after meeting her Witte relatives, she was introduced to her Mimi Witte’s friends with a gathering at the house complete with cupcakes and punch for the adults.
The return trip to Atlanta included another stop in Nashville. We wheeled around the massive Opryland Hotel east of the city. On the way home the next day we went up Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga. We entertained the idea of seeing Rock City, as some many roadside signs instruct you to do, but there was not enough time and so we had lunch before continuing back to life in Atlanta. Next month, Amelia adds Louisiana to her list of places. She won’t remember all these travels, but the pictures here are the proof. Click here for pictures.
