ALABAM-ER!

We went to Alabama with Jonathan for a quick weekend ... he took an implant course and we saw a little of Birmingham. We went to a hydrangea botanical garden: Aldridge Botanical Garden ... and there obviously isn't too much blooming - but we really enjoyed being outside, the pond and the walking trail! I'd LOVE to go back in the spring! We also went to the Barber Motorsports Museum ... which was especially fun since I have TWO boys! Benjamin hopped and skipped happily through the WHOLE 5 floors of motorcycles and cars! Here are a few favorite pictures!
The three of us in front of the "biscuit" delivery motorcycle. The motorcycles with the side-cars were our FAVORITES!
The boys in front of LOTS of the motorcycles...
The three of us in front of this awesome convertible!

Benjamin watching the race cars race on the track from inside the museum!

I LOVE this picture of Benjamin trying to figure out who or what lives in this tree hole!

Us in front of this BEAUTIFUL lake with the fall leaves!

Jonathan was also able to go to the Birmingham Temple! We stayed about 45 minutes from the Temple - so next time we are planning to stay closer and BOTH get to go!
