Trip to Alabama

This past weekend we went down to Fairhope, Alabama for my cousin's wedding. I was a little apprehensive of the nine hour drive with Lucy but she did great! We borrowed a portable DVD player from our friends and she loved it :)
Hooray for Baby Einstein!
Pointing and Laughing :)
Thoroughly entertained
The first night we were there we all got together at my Nana's house. Here's a picture with her and all the great grand kids.

Chilling in the hotel room playing some Nintendo DS
Before the wedding on Saturday we drove over to Mobile Alabama to tour the U.S.S Alabama battleship


I think this was the torpedo room. All I know is it was really tight!

Reading the instructions for the self-guided tour

First we took a tour of the upper decks...


Look at those Cannons!


Then we went down below to tour the lower deck. Here's Lucy trying out the bunk beds.

A list of all the crew
Found some Andrews on the list...wonder if we're related? :)

Going through the gift shop
After touring the battleship we looked around the Aircraft Pavilion
Lucy was pooped out!
We didn't go on the submarine because we couldn't get Lucy's stroller up the stairs and she was fast asleep

Lucy and Great Nana
We ended up staying a day longer than we had planned and I was so glad because we got to take Lucy down to the bay.
She loved it and I got some really cute pics!

Love this one :)
She was fascinated by the waves but she wanted Josh right there with her

Josh dug a big hole for Lucy to play in

On the last evening we all took a walk down the pier.
It was really windy :)
The view
When we were packing up to leave the next day Lucy sat and watched some Sesame Street.
