Memphis!

We went with Phillip's parents and sister/brother-in-law up to Menphis last weekend. The in-laws are purchasing a new piano and found a place in Memphis they would like to purchase it from.











We met them at the hotel in Oxford before heading out Saturday morning. Th kids got some great play time in together!





We then went straight to the piano store where they could test out whichever piano they were interested. We met up with some more family and headed to Corky's for lunch. (We wanted the commissary, but with an hour wait and hungry kiddos, that wasn't going to work!) Corky's was still delicious!


Beau and I had never seen the ducks march, so of course, we headed off to the Peabody after lunch. We had to wait a little while but we were finally able to see the ducks march off to the elevator to their home on the top floor of the hotel. (If you are unfamiliar with the history/tradition of the duck march at the Peabody....google it. It's too long to explain on here...)

While waiting for the ducks to march we were able to walk around for a bit. And guess who we saw?!?! SANTA!











After saying bye to Tony/Jan and Beau, we decided to go back in and walk around a bit more. So glad we did! We explored the top floor to see where the ducks actually live when not downstairs in the fountain.








We also got one more picture with Santa as a family!


Merry Christmas, everyone!
