Surprise!

A few weeks ago Scott took off Friday and we woke up the boys and said pack up a change of clothes, hiking boots and swimming trunks. We loaded in the car and headed North on I65. They had no idea, so we played guess where we're going. Remember, we're traveling North and we've already hit Kentucky and the boys are guessing....

Boys: Cruise
Us: With one change of clothes?
Boys: the beach?
Us: We're in Kentucky?

Have I told you how smart our kids are lately? In their defense, those are our typical vacations. Anyway, when we could no longer stand the guessing, we gave them a hint...MLB. We were headed to Cincinnati to a Reds game. We drove up Friday morning for a Friday night game, stayed downtown so we could walk across the river to the stadium.


I would highly recommend razorgator.com for any MLB ticket purchases. Our tickets were exactly as described--only 7 rows from the field behind first base (see the vendor selling "peanuts, cold beer,"? That's about were we sat.)
Reds shortstop, Brandon Phillips, came over and signed autographs before the game.

So we woke up the next morning and told the boys that we're headed home but have one more stop to make in Kentucky. Mamoth Cave (thus the hiking boots).
