Setting Sun over the Montgomery Sky

I think this sums it all up!

The Shakespeare Festival Pond

Here's the end of our museum visit. I think Trevor actually wanted to jump in a couple of times.

More museum fun!

The museum is a great place for the kids to run around in the air conditioning. Did I mention it was FREE?!

A Trip to the Arts & Crafts Museum

The Alabama Shakespeare Festival houses not only theatrical events, but also provides an art museum with children's activities.

Fun in the Sun

Even though it was extremely hot, we managed to get out a little and have some fun. I think I lost 2 lbs after all the sweating.

"The Montgomery Biscuits Baseball Game"

Believe it or not, the city had a contest for naming the new baseball team and they chose "Biscuits". That's what I call being COUNTRY and proud of it!!

The Montgomery Civil Rights Memorial

As you may know, Montgomery was instrumental in the Civil Rights Movement. We visited the Southern Poverty Law Center which not only continues to fight for equal rights of all people, but offers a tour that encompasses the years throughout the Civil Rights Movement. You go back in time via a movie and then you get to sign your name on the "Wall of Tolerance". I'll give it 5 stars!

"The circular fountain provides a timeline of important events in the Civil Rights Movement, beginning in 1954 with the Supreme Court decision to integrate American schools (Brown vs. the Board of Education) and ending with Dr. King's murder in 1968. It also records the names of 40 men, women, and children who lost their lives working for social justice." SPLC

"The Riverfront"
Recently we all took a trip to my hometown. It was a lot of workgetting everyone ready for the trip and the airport was crazy. You should have been there. We won't talk about the 20 minutes of solid screaming Teagan did because she wanted out of her car seat. It was all worth it, and I shouldn't be getting homesick for at least another 6 months. :-)
