Peabody Ducks & Downtown Carriage Ride

On Friday, December 30th we made our annual trip to the Peabody to see the Peabody Ducks march to the lobby fountain.  I think this is the 3rd or 4th year we have done this with the Spellings and the Barber's.  All the kids have such a great time.

Here they are waiting not so patiently :)  Honestly they did pretty well waiting the 25plus minutes waited.  There are always so many people waiting to see the ducks march.

Following the duck march we head to Huey's for lunch. 
 
 
 
After lunch the crowds have thinned and we returned to the Peabody for pictures and duck viewing.

After we came down from the roof the girls spent their Christmas money from Aunt Ella at Lansky's
in the Peabody.   Abby bought a rubber duck with the hotel name on it and Allie bought at hotel key chain.  On our way out of the hotel the girls (Abby, Allie and Ammie) saw a Cinderella Carriage and asked if we could we take a ride. Ainsley and I checked the price and decided we would do it.  The driver took us down Main Street, Court Square and the park across from the Morgan Keegan tower where we called Raymond and went to the window to see us in the park.  We had never taken a carriage ride and we loved it!  We look forward to our next one.  It was a little chilly but lots of fun.
