Final Five

While Skyler enjoyed her final five days on Auntie Chez Tennessee farm with her Gammey, Miss Carol & Uncle Charles, Daddy & I relaxed on the high seas as we cruised to Cozumel. I was excited to hear about those last few days and I promised you all a recap, so it went something like this at:
C&C Farms....
The mornings always included some fun activity on the farm and Thursday proved no different. Skyler and her Uncle Charles rode around the property on the moped after petting the animals.

The girls and Uncle Chaz enjoyed a delicious dinner at Cafe Roma and then had front row seats to see Travis LeDoyt's "Christmas With The King Of Rock & Roll" concert.
Travis has been called the best young "Elvis" in the world today. He travels through out the world and sells out every performance. He definitely portrays Elvis during the early years like no one else can! Sky absolutely grooved with the music. She was often out of her seat dancing and clapping.


Ten minutes before the concert ended, the Princess finally crashed. "Elvis" serenaded Skyler, singing Silent Night. The sold out audience loved it! She was a star and didn't even know it!

If you're interested in seeing short clips combined into one super video of this amazing performer, copy and paste http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjDXzBD584A  Definitely a delightful night and it certainly made an impression on her! When Sky hears an Elvis song on our 60's radio station, she yells, "ELVIS!" 
Friday was a day spent in a few stores and a lunch date with Brother Green, Auntie Cheryl's pastor.
 Olive Garden for lunch....

 With Brother Green
The entire family is hoarding a big secret about Friday and have something planned as far as presenting it to us, so I'm limited on sharing anything else with you all. Gammey wouldn't share any pictures or even hint of their afternoon. I even bribed her with a chilled bottle of wine for a little hint.....didn't help at all...lol!
Skyler was all ready to spend Friday night with the Girls at Auntie Cheryl's friend's home, Miss Margret. After they feasted on an amazing meal, the adults enjoyed a movie in the home theater while the Princess played upstairs in the massive toy room with Autumn, the babysitter.

Of course, Autumn & the animals loved her! 


Come Saturday morning, it was time for a home style country breakfast served up at the Old Fort Restaurant.....another "Short" favorite/must do while visiting the Dunsons.

Quick pose at the restaurant before shopping 
Skyler is no stranger to shopping and really enjoys the Orange Blossom Boutique. It's been known as the one stop, girl shop! Auntie Cheryl's friend, Pat Fuller, owns this beautiful store and we always make it a point to pop in with our wallets!
Next stop, the Red Ribbon Gift Shop. Again, another favorite place to find that unique gift, plus Christmas is visible year round! It's owned by another girlfriend (Nancy) of Auntie Cheryl's.




After a full day of finding that perfect outfit and special gift, Skyler enjoyed a play date with Darby, Kim's daughter. Kim is a dear friend and also works with Auntie Chez at Santek Environmental.  
They had a delightful time with the animals, especially when they fed them fresh apples from the produce store.




Sunday morning was spent at church with a fellowship Thanksgiving dinner afterwards. Doesn't Skyler look beautiful and so English in her red dress?
Monday, their last day of vacation, involved animal entertainment. Skyler rode many of her fury friends. 
 




Skyler shared a sweet goodbye with George, the cat, before heading to the airport. He's 17 years old and hopefully will still be enjoying life when we all return for our 4th Annual Girl's trip in May of 2013.
Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport is ready for Christmas! 
 Breakfast before her second airplane ride!
 And home here she comes.....
Flight #805 arrived on time, safe & sound!
I hope you adored all the pictures of our world traveler. It was wonderful seeing her run into her Daddy's arms once she got off the plane. Her kisses were continuous and her sweet voice was non stop, describing all her numerous events! Welcome Home, Gammey & Princess Skyler!

Sky saved some kisses for Laney! 
Skyler still can't stop talking about her trip, so thank you Auntie Cheryl and Uncle Charles for providing a wonderful ten days full of love and fun!
